Hi All ! :D

I understand that some Polyphonic Ringtones will be available at Back in Time Live - London 2004 ( Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend due to me recently moving to America ) Will they be available to buy from the C64 Audio Website ? I have a Motorola V60i through the Preypay T-Mobile, I bet the Ringtones would sound great !

Thanks !

Yep, pretty soon now: just waiting for a file to be uploaded to a content server.

Since the ringtones were tested on a Motorola 525 (amongst other things), I can pretty much guarantee you'll be pleased at what you get :)

I use a Sony Ericsson T630 and would be very happy if i get some cool c64 tunes for that!

Any ideas where to get such things?

Will they work with Pre-Pay T-Mobile users in the USA ? I seem to be having problems with a restricted WAP service, T-Mobile won't give any good reason for this. Plus ... I am unable to get any Ringtones Composer Software for my Motorola T720i ! What a Bummer ! :cry:

Thanks ! :D

Well, if it doesn't, then we can maybe sort something out with an EMS Message... a pity that phone doesn't support MMS.

What's your mobile number? I feel an experiment coming on...

If you're careful, you can use any MIDI sequencer... but if it's mono ringtones, then you just find something on the PC that supports the "IMelody" format, create your own mono track and then just transfer the resulting "IMY" file over.

Otherwise transfer over a standard polyphone SMF MIDI file.

The reason my new ringtones are better than the C64 MIDI files on the net (a lot of which are also mine) are:

1) better programmed (Rob Hubbard performs on the Crazy Comets ringtone, since it's a reprise of his BIT 1 performance)

2) Written the phones in mind (i.e., the right length, and taking into account the capabilities of the multiple phones out there)... if you don't edit them you just get the intro every time.

3) A lot of them are based directly on the MIDI files for previous CD tracks.
