MIDI Ringtones ARE possible

[sheran_g]

Alright, this is what I've found out so far. There is a utility called PSMPlayer (http://www.zensay.com/qtek/tools/psmp380e.zip) which can save a regular MIDI file as a Ringtone. This saved MIDI format is compatible with WM2003.

If your MIDI file contains more than 6 instruments (including drums), then you have to reduce the number of instruments (I believe WM2003 only supports upto 6 instruments. Yes, I know, this sucks.) to 6. In doing so, you have to use your best judgement in order to see what instruments you want and which combination sounds best.

Happy ringtone making!

well i think the reason it only supports 6 is that its to make it compatable with polly. tunes(ie nokia ones)

As I have been testing this and all the nokia pollies i download work fine with my xda
