1986 iPhone ringtone

As I did some mixing of old tracks I ran into this sound effect on a track, which actually is a recording of the phone I had back in 1986 (a trustworthy PTT Telecom phone, the former state owned telephone provider in the Netherlands).

I guess it would be fun to turn this into a ringtone for my iPhone. You can download it here:

Ringtone iPhone 1986

If you’re on a Mac:

  • right click and save the file (if it adds a .txt extension, delete it),
  • double click the file in Finder, it will be added to iTunes under ‘Tones’.
  • sync with your iPhone
  • choose the ringtone under ‘Settings’ > ‘Sounds’ > ‘Ringtone’.

If you’re on Windows or don’t use an iPhone I guess you will find a way to use the ringtone 😉

Have fun!
