• WORK WITH RTTTL RINGING TONE FILES

Ringing Tones Text Transfer Language (RTTTL) files are text files that contain various types of information that make up a ringing

tone. When your phone receives a ringing tone over the air, your phone is actually receiving the information in RTTTL format. The 4 RTTTL file includes song title, scale and tempo indications, and the actual note information.

An RTTTL formatted ringing tone may appear as follows:

babbino:d=4,o=5,b=140:g#,g#,g#,2c6,g,2f,8p,2d#,g#,a#,c6,2g#,g#6,2d#6

song title scale and tempo data note data

Use RTTTL data from the Internet

The Internet has become a popular source for sharing ringing tones in RTTTL format. If you find a ringing tone Web site displaying the RTTTL data, you can create your own RTTTL files by pasting the data into a text editor program (for example: Notepad), then save the file using the .txt file extension.

PC Composer can open (and save) ringing tones in RTTTL format. Songs you compose in PC Composer can be saved as RTTTL files, then shared with family and friends via e-mail (for example).

Open an RTTTL file

1Click the Open button (or select Open from the File menu).

2Click the File of type drop down arrow, then select RTTTL files (*.txt) from the list of available file types.

3Locate the RTTTL file on your hard drive or other removable disk drive, then double-click the file name to open.

4Click the Convert track to tone button and convert file to ringing tone format.

You can now send the ringing tone to your phone, edit the ringing tone (as needed) and/or save the ringing tone as .ott (ringing tone) format on your hard drive.
