JW music as a ringtone


Recommended Posts

Right now I live in a place where every other resident is a JW. There are funny random encounters with brothers here and there.

The other day a man walked by my house and a Kingdom Hall song played on his phone. I don't remember which one, but I recognized it immediately. I thought it was an interesting way to let us know about it and a good idea for a ringtone on our phones.
 

What kind of JW music would you put on your phone ringtone?

I'd like to put myself a brodcasting intro, it's soft and not intimidating. But I can't find an mp4 file with the intro element cut out. Seems like it has to be done on its own.

My English is not very good, so if you see my mistakes, please tell me in the DM

I used to use kingdom songs for my ringtones. One time my phone started ringing during the meeting and everyone heard a kingdom song, i looked at the Sound brother like it was his fault for playing a song by mistake...:lol1:

You could record it as the Broadcast plays, then simply use the resulting file for your ringtone

There are free apps like Audacity that will strip the audio from a video file and let you edit it. I use to do that very often with Gold Wave.

I liked making and using an 8 bit / chip tune rendition for some of our kingdom melodies for my cell phone in the past. I thought it was funny and cute. Other than that, I also like using some of older, and lesser known kingdom melodies for sound of wake up alarms or a ringtone.

While I might like to use a Kingdom Song for a ringtone - my hearing is not what it used to be ... therefore, I need a ringtone that is loud and distinguishable as a phone so I use an actual "ring" tone on my phone.

 

For a similar reason, my 88-year-old FIL uses the "Red Alert" tone from ST-TOS

I create my own ringtones using Digital Audio Workstation software. I currently have made the 4 convention original songs into ringtones as well as a little bit of their introduction instrumentals into notification sounds!

 

I personally use Our Joy Eternally as my call ringtone. I'm not sure if sound files are downloadable here but feel free to use these as your ringtones if you can! I haven't uploaded the notification sounds though for the time being. Let me know how it goes for you, but PLEASE do not share them yourself to others. I currently store them on my google drive so if you or someone else would like the file, I can share it via email.
