What is a monophonic ringtone?
A monophonic ringtone is a type of ringtone that is only capable of playing one sound at a time. Ringtones are the sounds cell phones make when a person calls the cell phone subscriber. These ringtones can be modified and personalized in such a way that a specific ringtone sounds for a certain caller. For example, the cell phone subscriber may program the cell phone to use a monophonic ringtone of a happy and fun song whenever his or her best friend calls. The subscriber may also program it to play a romantic monophonic ringtone when his or her significant other calls. The monophonic ringtone was the first type of ringtone available to cellular subscribers. Today, polyphonic and full music ringtones are also available. The polyphonic ringtone was the first to follow the monophonic ringtone. Unlike the monophonic ringtone, the polyphonic ringtone can play more than one tone at a time. Both polyphonic and the monophonic ringtones, however, can only play tone based versions of songs. Alth
A monophonic ringtone relies on one instrument (or sound) only and usually plays the main melody of a song. So, how do you get these into your Motorola V400 cell phone? The first thing you need to do is find the Ringtone Text Transfer Language (RTTTL format) for a ringtone you like. On the web, they are often referred to as “Nokring”, “RTTTL”, sometimes mistakenly RTTL (there are really 3 “T”) or simply “Nokia” ringtones.
