Ringback Tone

I have been critised for my ringtones lately at work (Abba for when my Dad rings, Drum & Bass for my brother and Beyonce for Mandy) so i've decided to scrap personalised ringtones and go for something generic. I decided to source and create a 'ringback tone'. Here's an excerpt from Wikipedia:

"The ring-back tone is different in various countries depending on the requirements for the ring-back specification in those countries. The ring-back signal may be generated by the called-party servicing switch(S-MSC) or by the calling-party switch (O-MSC), but it is not generated by the called telephone instrument. It is generally started and stopped at the same rate as the ringing signal itself but perhaps out of phase.

In the UK and many other Commonwealth countries, it is a signature double beep. For most countries, it consists of a 0.4-second pulse, a 0.2-second pause, a 0.4-second pulse, and a 2-second pause. The pulse is made by mixing a 400 Hz and 450 Hz sine wave."

If you want to put it on your phone you can download the mp3 here. You can then bluetooth the file from your computer to your phone or if you're an iPhone user, click here.
