mp3 ringtones: how to edit them?

Hi;

My phone only plays mp3 ringtones; the pre recorded normal ringtones have stopped working.


I want to set it so only the mid section of a certain tune plays as the ringtone (I use itunes and have a mac), you know the chorus or whatever, just not the intro.

Does anyone know how to do this??

    Hi
    You can use Audacity v1.2.6 to do this job. It's a free download from here:-http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

    Make sure you download the

    lame_enc.dll

    aswell, that enables it to save as mp3 (unless its now included in the newer version)

    i think the lot is less than 3mb download

    Yes, I use mp3DirectCut with Ubuntu and Wine.
    But the OP has a Mac.
