Hello people !

Would it be fun to hold an mrc ringtone competition ?
I was thinking of having ringtones made on your msx that you can use for your cellphones,
and put online as a zip or something with mp3s or m4as or whatever format.
I could imagine having 2 types of ringtones:
1) short tunes not longer then max 10 seconds or so
2) sound effects made on the msx

All soundchips could be put to use, from PSG to Moonsound.
The upside of this is that you can do this relatively easy,
no need to come up with 4 minute songs, and sound effects
would take less time even to make. Bear in mind that the
ringtones/sfx would have to be useful for a phone, so they
make sense when they loop.
Also for having sfx, you can use a lot of channels and try tricks
with delay or do arpeggios with fast playback. Stuff you normally
wouldnt do due to channel limitations.

Who's up for a challenge, and any thoughts on this ?

Good point. In the meantime, get your looped musics from the following directories on scene.org.
