With many cellphones even at the 80-100$ range coming with mp3 playback capability but with limited memory might be a source of frustration for some. So here is a easy and FREE way to fit some mp3’s into your phone even with limited memory like Nokia 2600 Classic, Sony Ericsson K510i etc. So the first step is to download Audacity – A free Audio Editor.
Then in audacity, Edit menu -> under ‘Preferences’ ->under ‘File Formats’ tab -> Set the MP3 Export setup bit rate as 48 from the drop down menu (as illustrated in the screenshot below)
Then File-> Open -> “Select a mp3 file” and then File->Export as MP3 -> Save it. Viola !!! a mp3 file with size say 5 MB will be compressed to about 2MB (approx). Then upload it to your phone and enjoy.
And here is a way to cut a small portion of the mp3 file to make a mp3 ringtone. Use this MP3 splitter (’Right click and Select Save Target’ as to download)to select a source mp3 file and a destination to save the result. And then you have three choice to split by size, seconds and selection. By the end of it you will have small mp3 ringtones of your favourite tunes to rock your cell phone. Enjoy
