So whats everyone's Phone Tones?

GuitarBizarre · 10-03-2011, 11:30 AM

Just changed my phone tones after ages, wanted to see what everyone else used.

Also, am I alone in that when I add a tone to my phone, I put it in cubase and slam the levels up in a limiter? I find it annoying as hell when an awesome tone is too quiet to actually alert me to stuff.

My old tones were these:

Metal Gear Solid 4 Alert Sound (!) - YouTube

03- Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt OST - Fly Away (Now) - YouTube

and my new tones are these:

Biffy Clyro-Get ****ed Stud + Lyrics - YouTube

I GOT BLISTERS ON MY FINGERS! - YouTube

I am a weird guy, with a weird humor, so I make it a case in point to pick the most awkward in public area type songs....

For calls:

The lines "Shall I cut you down, this would be your last physical communion."

For Messages:

The lines "Screamland! Screamland! Popping your testicles out of my fisted hand. I'm going to show you how wrong you are, and how ****ing right I am!"(picked intentionally due to it's creepy homoerotisism)...

and they're both horribly recorded via phone.

the first 7 seconds of this song used to be mine but now im mature and i use a preset ringtone.

I have never used a ringtone on any of my phones. I usually keep it on vibrate or even silent. I'm usually somewhere where a phone should not be ringing, but I have it out on the table so I can see if someone's calling or texting.

Classic ring tone. Been mine for awhile now.

Well I lied, I did use a ringtone on my Nokia 3310, the first cell phone I ever had. The default one.

Holy crap. To think that I was using that like 10 years ago and now I have an iPhone 4.

I used to have the opening to Beck's Earthquake Weather, but as I've gotten older I've gotten lazier. I've had this phone for 6 months+ and I still haven't changed any default settings. I'd much rather a personalized ringtone but I'm too lazy.

What that guy said.
Ringtones are so gimmicky, and I'd feel like a twat, for it to go off in public.
Keep it silent, and keep your dignity.

Oh yes indeed:

and my message tone is Bill and Ted saying 'excellent!' with the guitar lick. Short and sweet.

I have the first 15 seconds of it but I wish I had more like when the bass comes in.
