Creating ringtones for download
October 5, 2006 7:54 AM Subscribe
I have some questions about creating phone ringtones for people to download.
I successfully created a bunch ringtones in a bunch of different file formats(see #2 below). I used Sound Studio on my Mac, this site http://media-convert.com/ , and iTunes to make the mp3 so I didn't have to mess with LAME. I have all the files edited right... they sound good looping, etc.
Now I have some reality check type questions:
1. Ringtones loop, right?
2. These formats should cover me, right?
MP3, WAV, AAC, AMR and MMF
3. Should they be mono or polyphonic?
4. What is a good bit rate?
Also, If you know of a good tutorial, please pass it along.
Thanks Much!

Just make sure the bitrate and file size correspond with "most" cellphones. If I were you I'd hunt through Howard Forums for awhile till I felt comfortable with the average formats.

I am going to make the assumption that people will know what type of file they need and how to get that ringtone on their phone.
