3. Next, open the GarageBand app on your iPhone (free; requires iOS 14 or later).
Next, pick your favourite instrument. You possess a number of instruments, including a keyboard, a drum set, a guitar, and others. I’ll start by selecting the drum. Tap on the project icon located in the top left corner of the screen after that.
Afterward, select the loop symbol located in the top right corner of the screen.
4. Make sure the Files tab is chosen in the top-center area of the screen, and then tap on the items to browse the Files app. Navigate to the audio file you just saved after that.
5. After that, press the audio recording to bring up the project menu.
After the instrument that is placed on the first track, drop it as the second track.
6. To exactly trim the audio recording, tap on the track and then drag either end. Once it has been edited, play it (use the play button at the top) to make sure it meets your requirements.
Note:
- If you aren t fond of the metronome, you can easily disable it. Simply tap on the metronome icon to the right of the record button.
7. Ensure that the audio recording is no longer than 40 seconds. After perfecting the recording, select “My Songs” by clicking the tiny downward arrow in the upper-left corner of the screen.
8. The Garage Band project will then show up in the Recents tab. Choose Share by giving the project a long press.
9. After that, chooseRingtone to export your work as a ringtone.
Give it a good name after which you should press the Export button in the upper right corner of the screen.
10. After exporting the audio recording as a ringtone, tap Use sound as to make it your iPhone’s default ringtone.
Finally, you may choose to assign it to a contact or set it as a standard ringtone or text tone. You can move forward after choosing the desired option.
