Many of the newly minted owners of iPhones, sooner or later asked a reasonable question: "How would stir ringtonchik from here is that song? "- and the first thing moved google in search of special programs for cutting sound signals. If you have a Mac - forget about "Google". After all, a tool for creating ringtones is already on your computer.
I am an ardent supporter of the idea of a full-time software to squeeze out the best that it can. Well, really, what to pay for the whole 129 rublyov audio editor RingerIf the ringtones for the iPhone can be cut into bundles of the free Garage Band? Especially is this simple. The entire procedure can be divided into four simple steps.
Step 1. Pick up the original sound
If you keep the music in your iTunes library, then it is a prime source for the million and one piece of unique ringtones for your ayfonchika. In addition, left Garage Band has a lot of funny and just great sounds that will fit perfectly for different signals. But if you and this will seem a little, you can poshurshat bins on the network: the good, the Internet has a sound bank from which you can download any file. The overall sound sources list of ringtones and audio signals thus obtained (in order of priority):
- Mediatheque iTunes (in Garage Band is available through Media Browser).
- Sounds and jingles Garage Band (available in the program through the panel Magnifiers).
- sound bank free Sound. Here, look for the sound - it is a pleasure: not only that the keyword will pick up a bunch of tracks, so more and try to offer something "adjacent" (not always successfully, but it happens to come across the idea of new ringtones).
- sound bank Sound Jay. Search here like it does not exist - just a few categories, completed a decent number of interesting audio fragments.
- sound bank Macaulay Library devoted exclusively trills of birds, chirping insects, the croaking of frogs and other pleasant sounds of nature. Provides search and review by category.
Of course, the last three paragraphs deposits Free sounds on the Internet is not restricted. But these banks (yes, plus media library iTunes, plus yes Garage Band sounds) you head is not enough for one month.
Step 2. Create a preform ringtone
When you have decided that he would take as a basis for future sound, run Garage Band and in the dialogue of creating the project, select the icon ringtone. You will have a sound track and on cycle lane (marked on the sound track yellow), limiting the duration of forty seconds of sound (physical limit for ringtones in iOS).
Step 3. Add and edit sound
At the beginning of the track, drag the desired file from the Media Browser, set loops, or a file manager - depending on where the source audio file.
If the source - a complete musical composition of her need to leave only a small fragment. Scroll the pointer to the desired position (if necessary, play back the sound to make it easier bearings) and, guided by the sound form, set the pointer precisely at the beginning future ringtone. Pressing ⌘T, you cut the source region into two parts, of which the left can be removed. Similarly, position the pointer in the final position of the future ringtone, press again ⌘T - and remove the right side of the region.
Tighten the remaining part of the original sound to the beginning of the track and see if you prune it well.
Please note that from the beginning Garage Band activated playback mode cycle, and the duration of this cycle is the length of the yellow strips. Move the mouse cursor to the right end of the strip and pull it to the left so that the pause after playing an audio track and the transition to the beginning was not too long. Perhaps a pause is not necessary at all - then the yellow strip length should be the same as the length of the audio track. In general, experiment, checking each time the sound is almost finished ringtone.
If you want, you can pokoldovat with sound effects, but do not overdo it: all the same when you export ringtone Garage Band would cut all unnecessary sound frequencies that a speaker ah-devaysa physically unable play. Yes, disable metronome before playing - zadalbyvat. For ringtone he did not need.
Step 4. Exporting the finished sound to iTunes and synchronize with your phone
When the result of shamanism on the soundtrack you satisfied - save the result keys ⌘S, specifying the name of a specific project. This is important: if you leave the default name UntitledThen under that name, and your ringtone will fly into your iTunes library. There is, of course, you can rename the ringtone through the information window (key ⌘I) - choose which way to assign a name you prefer.
However, with "Aytyunzom" I ran a little forward - ringtone still languishing on the sound more "Garage Band". Finish with him fuss. On the menu Export choose Ringtone to iTunesAnd in a moment you will hear the familiar sound of the library already "Tuna". Ringtone ready and waiting for you in the library section of ringtones. His remains transferred to the usual phone synchronization.
