Some ringtones are downloaded online for free all you need to do is key in “download ringtone” attached with the term “free” so you can avail of free mobile ringtones. However, if you want ringtones for cell phones that are unique, you would need to learn how to make your own ringtone. Here is how:
You will need a phone that has the capacity to play music in MP3 format. Most phones have this capability but you would still need to check. You would need connectivity so you can either send an MP3 song to your phone through email or a Bluetooth or infrared device. You can also use a cord to transfer an MP3 song from your computer to your phone provided that your mobile has this capability. If it does not recognize the device, look for the mobile phone’s software and install it on the computer.
Simple transfer the song to your mobile and set it as a ringtone. Most songs play a few minutes though so if you want to capture the best parts of the song, you would need a sound editing software. One of the best editing software around is Audacity. This software is free and you can look for it online to download it.
Do you want to make your very own ringtone? If you want to do it from scratch, you can always record yourself playing the piano with a tune you want and transfer the MP3 file to your device. This will enable you to just do a 20 second tune for your phone without using up too much of the phone’s memory. For those who do not have any recording devices at home, you can always use your phone’s sound editor where you can press notes and record your very own ringtone. The sound would only result to a monotone tough, which means the sound quality will not be that good so if this idea does not sound very good, you can always resort to free ringtone downloads.
You should choose your ringtone wisely. Make sure that the one you choose is something you really like. You should however, imagine yourself in different places where the tone might go off because of a call. If you are on a queue at the bank and your mobile starts playing something like “White and Nerdy” be sure you will not be embarrassed by the ringtone itself.
For people who do not really want to mess with a sound editing software, there is editing software that is easy to use. You can look for these online and see which one you can tweak with to make your very own tune. Mobile17 is a good choice is you would like to just get snippets of a song. You can download the ringtone right from the said web service without having to transfer it using a cord. Making the ringtone on the said web service is free but sending it is not, so be prepared to shell out a few bucks to get your edited ringtone.
