Cool idea. Curious, wdym no audio ringtones? I think all submissions would be audio? Cuz music?
of course i would submit this, lol. so this battle is self-explanatory: compose monophonic and polyphonic ringtones. no audio ringtones though, sorry!
restrictions would be:
- the composition must not be any longer than 40 secs
- for MIDIs, you must use a mobile soundbank (such as the mobile beatnik ones listed here) or any other mobile synth such as yamaha SMAF
- for miniBAE MIDIs, you can use beatnik editor and route it to your DAW of choice. for mobileBAE, you could just use one of the converted soundfonts and then record it with the actual soundbank in beatnik player for mobile audio.
-- you can also use samples too! some phones had RMF and XMF ringtones (MIDI formats that feature samples), and SMAF supports samples too
- it's okay to compose them with fanmade mobile soundfonts, although it is preferred to record them directly from the software or even an actual phone
format would only be wildbit, as we currently don't have formats for any mobile-related formats (not counting midi since that's microsoft gs wavetable synth only). examples of formats include MIDI, MMF (yamaha SMAF), RMF (rich media format), XMF (extensible music format), and some others
