ToneShop is an application which creates ringtones from a variety of formats, fora wide variety of formats supported by most popular mobile phones. All you need to do is to just point Tone Shop to the WAV, WMA, M4A, or MP3 file you want to use as your source, and then with the help of ToneShop’s simple editing tools, choose the start and end time of your ringtone. The output format supported by your cell phone can be chosen, after which you need to hit convert and there you are with a new ringtone.

The Procedure:

• With the help of the Toneshop program’s built-in basic editor, select and crop your favourite song to the fragment you want to use as the desired ringtone
• Since this cropping tool prevents preciseness, it is better to use a third-party sound editor
• Select the format you want to export your newly created ringtone to and you’re good to go
• Operating Systems: Windows 2000, XP, Windows Vista
Ensure to check the restrictions that your mobile phone might have with respect to the ringtone’s size and length. Bear in mind the fact that your phone is to be connected to the PC in some way via a USB cable, IR port, Bluetooth in order to transfer the ringtone to the device. In case of an iPhone, the M4R file is to be opened in iTunes and the ringtones folder must be synced with your phone.
