Nokia composer ringtones
The Nokia 3210 was the first Nokia phone to use the composer ringtones.
Composer ringtones are also used by later Nokia models, such as the
Nokia 2100, 3310, 3315, 3330, 3350, 3390, 3610, 5210, 8250 and 8855.
These Nokia phones have a built in ringtone composer and you can compose new ringtones directly on
their keyboards. Composing ringtones this way is free, but requires
some skill.
Nokia Composer format ringtones look very similar to RTTTL ringtones, however there are a few minor differences. Usually, Nokia Composer ringtones do not have commas between the notes, and do not have a header containing the tempo, or song name. You can convert a Nokia composer ringtone to RTTTL format, add a song name, and tempo information. Composer ringtones are also used by other cell phone manufacturers such as Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Siemens and Samsung.
The composer format uses a code that correlates to the musical notes c,d,e,f,g,a,b and note durations expressed in factions of a beat.
Composer notes
Enter notes a - g by pressing keys 1 - 7 i.e.
1 = c
2 = d
3 = e
4 = f
5 = g
6 = a
7 = b
Duration
Decrease by pressing 8
Increase by pressing 9
Duration steps from 1 to 32 (32 shortest, 1 longest - 1 second)
Octaves
Press * to cycle through all three octaves
Pause
Add a pause by pressing 0. You can increase or decrease the pause using keys 8 and 9 as usual.
Sharp (Slighter higher tone)
To use a sharp press the hash (#) key. A # symbol appears next to the note.
Dotted Note
To create a dotted note (a note with a short pause) press the note-key (1-7) and hold for a second. A . will appear next to the note.
You enter the notes into your cell phone by entering the basic note and then adjusting the duration (default is 1/4) and octave afterwards, using the following keys:
1 = C, 2 = D, 3 = E, 4 = F, 5 = G, 6 = A, 7 = B
8 = Shorten tone (1 2 4 8 16 32)
9 = Make note longer (1 2 4 8 16 32)
* = Choose octave (123)
0 = Insert a break
# = Sharp note
P.S. KeyPress codes makes things a lot easier :-)
