RingMaster for Nokia 9200 Series Communicator
Instructions
Editing
tunes:
Use the menu/hotkeys to
insert/delete notes
To change the note at the cursor
position use cursor up/down. Ctrl-cursor up/down moves the selected note by 6
semitones, so two Ctrl-cursor key presses will move the note one octave. Note
range supported by the 9210 is A4 to B7
To change the duration of a note
or pause use the number keys 1 to 6 as follows:
-
Whole note (semibreve)
-
1/2 note (minim)

1/4 note (crotchet)
-
1/8th note (quaver)
-
1/16th note (semiquaver)
-
1/32nd note (demisemiquaver)
Use the '.' key to change a note
or pause from normal to . or .. or ...
Press 'Enter' key to edit an
existing tempo, style or volume change (v1.06 onwards)
Using edited
ring tones on the 9210:
To use your new ring tones on the
9210 save them to eg '\Documents\Tones\'. Then use the "Profiles"
option in Control Panel and edit the profile you are using, eg 'General'. Select
the "Ringing tone" line in the 'Profiles settings' dialog and tap the
'Change' button. Browse to the folder you saved the ring tone in and select it
Sending

In v1.11F and above (not yet released) use
the "File - Send - As short message" menu

the ring tone. Then use "File manager" to find the saved tone and
press Enter to open it (in the built in ring tone player). Then use "File -

*RTTTL format used by RingMaster has the addition of
repeat functionality. In the tune section of the RTTTL you can use R<n>
and RE to specify loops, where <n> is 1 to 15, and specifies the start of
the section to be looped. RE specifies the end of the section to loop. For
example:
2B,R2,D6,E6,RE,C6
will play the following notes:
2B,D6,E6,D6,E6,D6,E6,C6. The section between R2 and RE
repeats two extra times (ie plays 3 times in total)
To import an existing RTTTL or RTX tune you need to
copy/paste the text into this dialog. If you use the web browser on the 9210 to
visit a site with ring tones, you can then copy/paste the ring tone text from
the web browser into RingMaster
Ring tones can be exported as MIDI files using
"File->Save ringtone->Export as MIDI"
