Make your own ringtones

August 15, 2005 by Mike Wendland 

Many people spend at least $2 to create one ringtone. This can get pricey if you want to create more than one. Often times when you purchase a ringtone, you can’t customize the clip. Users end up buying the same ringtone (the same portion of the song) as everyone else.
With a new service called Xingtone Ringtone Maker, users can quickly convert and transfer portions of an audio file from their PC/Mac or a CD to their mobile phones using cable-free, over-the-air transmission. For a one-time cost of $20, users can create an unlimited amount of ringtones for their mobile device such as any portion of their favorite song, audio clips, soundtracks, soundbites from movies, or record your voice or your baby’s voice…pretty much anything you want.
XRM lets you choose any audio you want and then trim it to the desired length (usually about 10-20 seconds depending on your phone model and carrier). When it’s ready, simply click the “SEND” button on the XRM software on your PC/Mac (no special cords needed). XRM sends a text message to your phone that contains a link back to your new ringtone. Follow the link, download your ringtone, save it on your phone and assign it as your ringer. Users can create an unlimited amount of ringtones with XRM.
Pretty cool.
