Fonedream
employ and contract with a team of specialist musicians and
studio engineers. The creative team have a number of daily
duties including the management of multiple music charts across
a large number of Countries. Our audio ringtone business is
broken down into the following key components:
- Sourcing Material
- Creation of mobile specific
Ringtone
- Technical engineering to SP-MIDI
and management of tracks
- Exporting and Technical nuances
deployed per manufacturer
- Previews and Meta data generated
for upload by Content Managers
At Fonedream we don’t process our
ringtones through auto tools to generate content suitable
for all handsets, we do all of this by hand and each track
is listened to by our Audio Content Manager prior to release.
The studio: we utilise Pro-Tools and Cu-Base
for our audio production and each individual musician has
their own personalised keyboard input methods. Must music
is generated via keyboard played naturally and then quantised,
we fell this replicates the track and provide a feel to the
music.
Our philosophy is that an audio track
needs to be converted conceptually to mobile as well as creatively.
We spend a great deal of time annotating or remixing the original
track to generate the best ringtone, it might be bringing
up the baseline, taking the chorus first, bringing the ride
our in for two bars prior to the catchy bridge. This thought
process we believe is one of the key reasons for the success
of our ringtones in the marketplace. |
