Ring Tonize your cell Phones

Pump your cell phone up with your favorite music

Here is a free useful tutorial that explains a way to make high quality free ringtones from your free music downloads that you already have.

Let me start with a question here, do you have a Multi Giga Hard Drive with 50 of most popular cell phones has single, small, low quality speaker enough to play simple tones so its necessary to do some editing before using it on the phone

Now, in order to get noise-free ringtone we have to cut down some bands of frequencies without this having a loud, noisy sound that can be annoying rather than nice when played on cellular speaker.

Please note the editing procedure we will describe below depends on two main things:-
1st The type of your Song/Music file.

Click the mouse right button then select properties from the menu, look for file type there. If your file is MP3 the lets get started "if it's other than mp3 like! wav, acc or something else then we will talk about it later"
2nd Your Cellphone,

If it's Sony Ericsson then you don't have to cut frequencies because literally Sony Ericsson cellphones have a great stereo speakers that can play any mp3 files with all high & low band frequencies. ( i.e. if your cell phone is Sony Ericsson then you will hear it on your phone just like the way you hear it on your PC after you finish).
Now, lets assume we have an MP3 file and a Non-Sony phone then first download a free software from the internet to edit mp3 files, here are some like references:

1. Mstikmedia.com/download
2. Mp3 - wav Editor - search

Also You can find ringtones in download-melodies.com where you can download free ringtones.
I personally used Cool Edit and Sound Forge which are little bit professional programs but almost half of these software use similar themes, we will explain here how-to edit frequencies and b! uild a high quality free ringtones.

Once you get th! e mp3 ed itor software installed and working, drag in the first song on your list.

Editing Procedure as follows:

1. Click on the Play button and start playing the song till you reach the part where you ringtone should start.
2. Using the mouse curser, click & drag till your reach the ending part. "it will be selected and shaded in different color"
3. Play the selected part and refine your selection till you reach the best part.
4. Replay it again just to be 100% sure and its perfect for a ringtone.
5. Now move the mouse curser over the selected shaded area then click trim or crop. What will happen basically is all other unselected part of the song will erase and the only selected part will stay there.
6. Now the most important thing to do is to save the new file by selecting Save As and give a new name to the file (like myringtone1.mp3).
7. Be careful here not to over write over the original song, again you have to do SAVE AS and ch! oose a new name in order to save the ringtone in another file not over the original song otherwise you will lose the song forever.
8. Now after you saved your ringtone on a new file called myringtone1.mp3 you can freely edit this ringtone without affecting the original song.
9. Now, limiting frequencies is what we need to do, so try to find something called equalizer or graphical equalizer within the software you're using in order cut down some high and low unwanted frequencies.
10. Below I'll show you a table of each frequency range & it's level of volume Reduction of Gain in db (decibel)

Frequency range Hz Volume Level in db
20 - 80 Hz From -25 to -20 db |
80 - 160 Hz From -20 to -6 db |
160 - 350 Hz From -6 to 2 db |
350 - 500 Hz From 2 to 3 db |
500 - 2K Hz Keep it on 3 db |
2K - 5.4K Hz From 3 to 2.5 db |
5.4K - 10K Hz From 2.5 to -3! db
10K -15K Hz From -3 to -20 db |
15K ! - 20K Hz From -20 to -25 db

Cut down and boost frequency range as per the above table i.e. giving it a volume reduction and volume gain according to the db level given above. That could be done using a normal equalizer or graphical equalizer in any editor software.
Note that we're giving a high boost on the center frequencies where the vocalist sounds are centered and thus vocal sound will be more obvious when played as a ringtone.

11. Now once you're done with frequencies, play your work and try to edit volume levels till you reach the exact level you want then save the new file in a new folder lets call it [ringtones ready to upload].
