The Ringtone Converter is a software program that allows the cell phone user to enter favorite ringtones quickly and easily into his mobile using its built-in ringtone composer without using cables or expensive SMS services.

The program converts ringtones of keypress, RTTTL (Ring Tone Text Transfer Language) and composer formats from one format into another. That means it converts ringtones that are found on the Internet from one format to another, for instance, from MIDI format to Keypress format. It also converts all the ringtones back into WAV formats. Generally the ringtones included in the converter are not subject to any copyright issues. Mobile users can change the appearance of their ringtone converters with the help of Windows version of the software through the application of ‘skins’ as per their tastes. Whatever phone and model you use—Audiovox, Alcatel, Ericsson, HTC, Inventec, Kyocera, Microsoft, Motorola, Nokia, NEC, OKWap, Panasonic, Philips, Sagem, Samsung, Sony, Sendo, Sharp or Siemens, the ringtone converter will create the best possible melody on the phone for an incoming call alert.

There are a certain number of ringtone converters available on the web free of charge. Uniring is the most popular free Universal Ringtone Converter, which allows the users to convert any Nokia ringtone from one format to another including those of well known brands like Samsung, Ericsson, Siemens and Motorola. You don’t need to be a technical or musical genius to use this program. Just follow the simple instructions. In most of cases, Uniring's output will be represented in the form of keypress sequences under which the mobile owner has to press some keys on his phone to get a favorite melody. If you want to compose your own ringtone and convert it into the phone’s format, use Nokring software, available on the Internet. The output of Nokring will be in RTTTL format, which in turn is converted to the phone’s format with the help of Uniring. Your ringtone is simply another way to express your individuality.
