What are polyphonic ringtones?
Polyphonic ringtones are the best kind of ringtone because they are more advanced musically. Regular ringtones are monophonic, which means that only one note can be heard at a time. But Polyphonic ringtones can play several notes at the same time, combining for example a piano sound with drum and base. In other words, the difference between regular ringtones and polyphonic ringtones is equivalent to the difference between a solo flute player and a whole orchestra.
The standard for polyphonic ringtones is the well-known MIDI file format. The simplest way to transfer polyphonic ringtones is using the MIDI by WAP system available here (see below):
