Free Cell Phone Rings
Built-in composer units can be found in many cell phone models, especially from Nokia, Sony Ericsson, and Motorola (MotoMixer unit). These composer units let you typically make your own polyphonic ringtones right on the phone without any cables or downloads. However, composing your own tune from scratch isn’t the easiest thing to do, so many use available online resources for pre-made instructions and pre-made tracks. These instructions are available from, for example: cellphones.about.com/od/ringtonesmelodies/ That site also has free polyphonic phone rings. This is because they have paid to an in-house composer to make melodies, by-passing the need to pay extra royalties. Free Cell Phone Rings – Data Cables Data cables is another way to get free mobile phone ringing tones. If you find a source that has free content online, you can download these items first into the PC, then into the cell phone with data cable. For this scenario to work, you also need compatible content management software that allows you to edit the cell phone’s content. These packages are widely available for almost all cell phone models. Also, these editing packages for free cell phone rings include PC ringtone composer software that allows you to compose ringers on your PC. These composers usually allow for a wider range of editing, better user interface, plus better pre-listening possibilities than what’s available in the built-in composer units. To find these PC composers, look up the software package that you may have got with the cell phone, or look up the corporate site of the manufacturer (not all cell phones/manufacturers have this option). You can also use audio editors such as Ringtone Ripper, Audacity, Switch, or Cool Edit, to easily make your own real music ringtones from your existing collection of CD tracks or MP3 songs. When downloading the content from desktop, however, users of data cables have reported a wide variety of problems. So, before you do buy a data cable for this purpose, it’s best to read some of the feedback forums for ringtone downloads using data cables specific to your cell phone. You can also use Bluetooth connection or send the ringers via wireless email on some cell phones and services. Free Cell Phone Rings – Converters Ringtone converters are mostly available for free demonstration purposes, with several being completely free. The basic features in many converters offer conversion between RTTTL (Ring Tone Text Transfer Language), MIDI, Nokia key press sequences, Motorola 'on screen' format and Nokia Composer ring tones. If you use real music ringers, you can convert MP3 ringers to other formats with such tools as Switch (a free download). If your cell phone has MMF support (mainly in Samsung cell phones), you can make format conversions with SMAF converters from Yamaha. Also, because many of the free converter packs include free ringers, you can get free cell phone rings from these software packages as well. Most of the software packages available for free cell phone rings use cables, but there also packages that require no cables. If you’re a Mac user, you should look up packages from companies like RingtoneSoftware.com. Providers of polyphonic ringer converter packages include RingtoneSoftware.com |
