Is it possible to make your own polyphonic rings tones from say your mp3 collection or .wav files? If so how can you do this

Thanks

The short answer: no
The long answer: well it can be done but the result will sound like shit
if you have more than 2 instruments playing...
cuz midis are not 'sound' files like wav or mp3, they contain instructions for a midi chip on how to play the sound.

I read an anology that sorta explains it:
If you scan a newspaper you can't edit the text (unless some extra tools are used but that's not the point) cuz it will be a bmp or something.
So an mp3 can't be converted to midi cuz the information about the instruments are lost, you just hear the sound.
Hope this clear things up a bit

The short answer isn't as painful to read, but at least I learned something new about midis...
