Of course, it is possible to create ringtones iTunes means, but it's more for extreme cases, because of convenience in this case can not be considered. In the case of Ringer us for a pleasant interface, convenient and intuitive control - everything you need to quickly and easily create ringtones.

Ringer recently updated to version 2.0 and has received many new features:

• volume control in manual mode;
• a more precise time scale;

instagram viewer
• support Retina;
• support for iTunes 11;
• full screen mode;
• compatibility with OS X Mavericks;

After the launch, the application meets us welcome screen, and immediately offers several tracks from your iTunes library to create ringtones. If the proposed songs you do not like - you can choose any of the sidebar. They are grouped by artists, albums, or playlists. Also there is a small number of free ringtones complete (categorized) and the ability to download more, directly from the site ringtonefeeder.com (But already there is a paid subscription is required). Well, not why we came here, we need your ringtones - so let's create them!

The main working area allotted to the timeline (timeline) for a more convenient and intuitive interaction with the track. Sidebar showing the iTunes library, traditionally located on the left (there is a search filter), and a manual control panel will open on the right, if you click the gear icon in the bottom right corner. For the most part, after the addition of a ringtone (through the side panel or dragging from Finder) we only need the main area with the timeline, all the main controls are located exactly in her.

The first thing we need to do to create a ringtone is to specify the desired portion of the song. Duration ringtone iPhone, as is well known is 40 seconds, so Ringer restricts the selection area is a duration. The selection area can be changed by dragging the start and end in the right direction.

For the convenience of adjusting the start and end, it is possible to increase the time step scale. To do this, click ⌘+/⌘— or use the gesture "pinch". See, or rather listen to the result, you can click Preview or simply by pressing space bar. Our ringtone is played cyclically, so if it ends with the words (so that it is not combined with the beginning) - you can add a smooth fading. Drop-down menu Fade In It is responsible for a smooth start, and Fade Out - ending. transition step is ½, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 seconds. You can also add a pause after the ringtone using the item Gap.

Version 2.0 introduced the ability to create with the help of well Ringer melody for an alarm or sms. No, of course it was possible to put a ringtone on any Service or sms before, but it was necessary to select sounds of the section ringtones. Now when you create a ringtone, you can just specify its type and it will initially be displayed in the appropriate sections - a trifle, but nice. Next to Fade In There is a button having two positions, "bell" / "Service" - that it is responsible for the type of the saved ringtone. In addition, the duration of the sounds for sms and alarm a little different from the duration of ringtone - it is thirty seconds, instead of forty.

manual control panel allows you to set the ringtone start and its duration - it will create a marquee in the specified interval. A good solution, especially for long songs. Yes, and for not very long, too, it is more convenient to listen to the track and remember desired fragment begins with a space. You can also increase or decrease the volume of your ringtone, compared with the original.

Well, we can only keep our ringtone. It becomes very simple - click the orange button Create and it's done.

What I still like Ringer, it's the fact that he keeps create ringtones in iTunes, right into the category of sounds. It only remains to connect your iPhone and sync your new ringtones. That's all!

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Still have the opportunity to share your ringtones with friends through iMessage, Twitter and Facebook. Not to say that a very useful feature, but a nice bonus.

I do not know if you can come up with some other functions for the application to create ringtones - in my opinion, in Ringer 2.0 has absolutely everything you need. The interface is not overloaded with unnecessary controls, conveniently organized search your library and import tracks. According to the same no claims management, as well as on everything else.

Ringer is distributed as shareware. Before you buy the app, you can free download it from the developer's site. application functionality will be available to you in full, but all created in the unregistered version ringtones will be marked with a marker (the beginning of each ringtone nasty voice will quickly say that the ringtone created in Ringer 2.0). However, the disadvantage of this is called the language does not turn, because the price of the application of 169 rubles.
