• CREATE RINGING TONES FROM MIDI FILES
Nokia PC Composer allows you to open Standard MIDI files, then convert the data to ringing tone format. Now you can carry your
favorite PC MIDI file as a ringing tone in your phone!
About Standard MIDI files
Standard MIDI files of popular music frequently consist of multiple instruments (bass, drums, organ, etc.). Typically, there is also a
track dedicated to the song’s melody. There are two types of Standard MIDI files:
• Type 0 files - 1 track of MIDI data containing all the various instruments; each instrument assigned to different MIDI “channel.”
• Type 1 files - each instrument has its own dedicated track and MIDI channel. Track/instrument names are embedded in the file
as text information.
PC Composer’s interface interprets the multiple track information and allows you to choose the correct track or instrument.
Important: PC Suite supports Type 1 MIDI files only. PC Suite cannot display the necessary note and instrument data when
opening Type 0 MIDI files. If you try to open a Type 0 file, no data is displayed.
