I found a bug of Flashtone 2.10
Try to insert ringtone while you are at ringtone number 1 or 2 (type01 or type02). Boom, unexpected error.
Also, long tone will be sounded as double tone. ie: 2c will be sounded as c,c. And ringtone convertion is worse than PPMEdit.
IMHO, currently, the best rttl to .re converter is PPMEdit (no matter 1.0a or 1.0h). It can precisely convert 99,9%
The bug i found at PPMEdit is: if the dot is not at the end of current tone, the tone will be sounded 1 octave lower. I'll try to explain with this :
2c. = a little longer than 2c ( adding dot, the sound will be little longer)
2c.5 = equal to 2c5.
If 2c.5 be converted using PPMEdit, the sound will be 2c.4 (or 2c4. it's same. But the sound will be 1 octave lower)
So the soluton for PMEdit users, if there's dot lies aint at the end, move the dot to the end of current tone. ie : if you found 2d.6 try to change it to 2d6.
Hope you undestand. My english is poor.

We can't expect much from Flashtone. The author retired.

After trying with several tones, i'd realized that the bug of Flashtone 2.10 about long tone (2c sounded as c,c) is already gone. I'm sorry, it's my mistake. But the other bug is still there.
Now... flashtone 2.10 covertion is best too . :-)

BTW, attached is ringtone made by a well keyboardist. i realize some tones posted by phredick has beats (shortest tone). this is really really cool. Can some1 tell me how to do that?
Please make my tones (at attachment) or tell me how, so my tones has beats like predick's tones.

i think the short tones u said is also called special effects.

here is a sample and do test it.
