 Do you want to set the default layer, so that it's retained even after you unplug the board?  If so, this is the function for you.
 
-To use this, you would use `set_single_persistent_default_layer(layer)`.  If you have a name defined for your layer, you can use that instead (such as _QWERTY, _DVORAK or _COLEMAK).

 ::: tip
 There are a large number of predefined songs in [quantum/audio/song_list.h](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/quantum/audio/song_list.h) that you can use.
