I'd like to use a song as the ringtone for my mobile. The song is "Moonriver" by Henry Mancini as sang by Audrey Hepburn herself in one of the sequences of that lovely "Breakfast at Tiffany's". But it's not certainly a noisy song so to make sure I can hear somebody calling in more or less noisy environments, I am trying to use Audacity in order to equalize the sound so it has enhanced presence. Usually preset sounds in mobile phones are heavily equalized so they stand out in a noisy environment when the phone rings. I've enhanced a bit the 200-400 Hz band supposing there's the "body" of the vocal sound. Then I've enhanced 3 KHz to give a bit more clarity and 8 KHz so voice sounds a bit "hotter". Result is more or less ok, but I wonder... What EQ settings would you use to enhance presence of music/voices in order to use a sound as a ringtone?
Boosting 3-5KHz is typical for vocal presence... Not sure how that translates onto a phone, though. -TimH
