The build process accepts the following parameters, either from the environment or
as arguments to the `make` invocation:
-| Target | Parameter | Default value | Description |
-|-------------------------------|-----------------------|-------------------------------|-------------------------------|
-| build targets, `install` | `DEFAULT_CFG` | `monster.cfg` | Default configuration file |
-| build targets, `install` | `PLUGINS` | Linux/OSX: `./backends/`, Windows: `backends\` | Backend plugin library path |
-| `install` | `DESTDIR` | empty | Destination directory for packaging builds |
-| `install` | `PREFIX` | `/usr` | Install prefix for binaries |
-| `install` | `EXAMPLES` | `$(PREFIX)/share/midimonster` | Install path for example configurations |
+| Target | Parameter | Default value | Description |

+Note that the same variables may have different default values depending on the target. This implies that
+builds that are destined to be installed require those variables to be set to the same value for the
+build and `install` targets.
Some backends have been marked as optional as they require rather large additional software to be installed,
for example the `ola` backend. To create a build including these, run `make full`.
