Make Any MP3 Into Your Very Own Ringtone
I don't know about you and your friends but I always felt that your choice of ringtone is almost as important as the pair of shoes you are wearing as far as style goes. Nothing is more embarrassing than sitting amongst a group of people and your cellphone to ring playing "Baby Got Back". It isn't like their cheap either. Buying ring tones on a weekly basis to suit your mood is expensive, ranging from charges close to $3 sometimes.
Many ringtone services normally charge you more for a song snippet on your cell phone than they do for an entire song to be downloaded to your computer. Every time you want to a new one, you are charged $3 for 15 seconds of a song. Sometimes, those 15 seconds aren't even the part of the song you like. It doesn't seem fair. One way to get around this and save some money is for you to create your very own ringtones from your music library. Here's how:
- Before you begin with this little project, you should make sure your cellphone can support MP3 ringtones first of all. You'll also want to have Bluetooth, a USB cable, or email capability in order to transfer the MP3 to your cellphone.
- Ok, now that you have all the necessary pieces of equipment you're going to need, you can begin with creating brand new ringtones for your phone. Start with getting the song you want from a CD onto your computer. Rip the song and convert it to a WAV or AIFF file using which ever music software you have on your computer such as Windows Media Player, iTunes, Rhapsody, etc.. Save that file to a designated folder separate from any other music on your computer. If you already have the song you want on your computer as an MP3, simply copy it to a new folder.
- Open up your audio editing software. If you don't have one on your computer already, there are plenty of free ones available online for you to download. You'll probably need to also download a LAME library too for your operating system. This is free as well. Once, you've finished downloading the LAME library, open it up and set the bit rate to 128 kilobytes per second.
- Find the song you want to convert. Open the song you want to convert with the audio editing software you just downloaded. Find a part of the song you think would make a great ringtone. Aim for a section no longer than 15 seconds. Now that your choice of ringtone, click "export to MP3," found under the file dropdown menu. Next, save it as an MP3 file.
- The last step is to transfer the MP3 file to your cell phone with either an USB cable or Bluetooth. Another way of doing is by e-mailing it to your phone and then moving it to the correct folder. Once it is saved to your phone, you can select it as the default ringtone.
