Audacity is used to cut the MP3 down.
Your average MP3 is around 3 minutes in length and is around 3 megabytes in size.
So here’s how to edit your MP3 using Audacity.
I chose the first 60 seconds.
You may want more, you may want less.
But be honest, when your phone rings, how long do you wait before you pick up?
Do you really need more than 60 seconds?
Will the caller wait longer than 60 seconds?
I don’t think so.
Then to save that section of the file as its own file, go toFile-Export Selection As MP3.
It will ask you for a “lame_enc.dll” file before it can export as MP3.
It’s a tiny file (220KB) but necessary for MP3 exporting.
The selected portion will now be downloaded to your machine as a MP3 file.
The phone was already connected via the cable and the MP3 was instantly transferred.
But it may differ for other phones so check your manuals.
My girlfriend has a Samsung for example and for her it’s MUCH different.
