about ring tone tune wizard

Hi
Hi again!
I was playing around with the ring tone tune wizard and I see it goes from
Octave #5 but no lower and just wanted to make sure there isn't a way to make it go
to Octave #4....btw it is a pretty cool wizard tho
so how I did make it go lower is

Code:
Start:
Tune C.2,6,($24,$22,$20) 
pause 50 
B0 = 97
sound C.2 (B0,65)
B0 = 96
sound C.2 (B0,65)
B0 = 95
sound C.2 (B0,65)
B0 = 94
sound C.2 (B0,65)
END
I'm trying it all out because I looked in my bought @ auction IC bin
and found I have 30 of the LM386n-1 op-amps and found how to
make it work (googled schematics) to run my broken alarm/radio clock speaker
so now just for fun I was thinking of putting the whole thing in a big Christmas gift
and when they (friend) open the gift ....it will start blasting some jingle bell tune (over and over)
of course not the nicest of noises.
but its the thought that counts right :)

Hi
Just finished my version of dashing thru dah snow tune (jingle bells)
Of course for this tune I did use all the wizard tunes and did not have to go lower
so it worked out fine and of course my present to some friend would be a gag gift
just for fun/laughs or ... hope so anyway...hope not hurt any ones ears during the gift opening :)
but here is the code of my jingle bells tune.

Code:
#picaxe 20M2
#NO_DATA
START: 
pause 300
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($20,$29,$27,$25,$E0)
'Dashing through the snow
pause 300			    
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($20,$29,$27,$25,$E2)
'In a one horse open sleigh			    
pause 300			    
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($22,$2A,$29,$27,$24,$24)
' O'er the hills we go
pause 300			    
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($00,$00,$29,$27,$E9)
' Laughing all the way.			    			    
			    
pause 300			    
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($20,$29,$27,$25,$E0)
'Bells on bobtail ring			    
pause 300			    
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($20,$29,$27,$25,$E2)
'Making spirits bright.
pause 300			    
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($22,$2A,$29,$27,$00,$00,$00,$40,$02,$00,$2A,$27,$25)
'What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight.
			    
			    
pause 300			    
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($00,$6C,$29,$29,$29,$0C,$29,$29,$29,$4C,$29,$00,$25,$27,$29,$6C,$2A,$2A,$2A,_
                       $6C,$2A,$29,$29,$29,$29,$27,$27,$29,$27 )
   'Jingle bells,jingle bells, Jingle all the way,Oh what fun it is to ride,In a one horse open sleigh            
			    
pause 300			    
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($00,$6C,$29,$29,$29,$0C,$29,$29,$29,$4C,$29,$00,$25,$27,$29,$6C,$2A,$2A,$2A,_
                       $6C,$2A,$29,$29,$29,$69,$00,$00,$2A,$27,$E5 )
 'Hey, Jingle bells,jingle bells, Jingle all the way,Oh what fun it is to ride,In a one horse open sleigh!			     
pause 5000
'END   of course only "end" is for programming :)
GOTO START
maybe there is lots of tunes for it already but couldn't find one here
except the small example ... probably looked in the wrong spot as usual

This project just might be a winner for me ....
I have the last few notes of the tune like this
Code:
tune C.2, 5,%00000001,($00,$6C,$29,$29,$29,$0C,$29,$29,$29,$4C,$29,$00,$25,$27,$29,$6C,$2A,$2A,$2A,_
                       $6C,$2A,$29,$29,$29,$69,$00 )
tune C.2, 7,%00000001,($00 )
tune C.2, 10,%00000001,($2A )
tune C.2, 14,%00000001,($27 )
tune C.2, 60,%00000001,($E5 )
just so they know its the end of the song :) and of course then it repeats
till the 9v battery becomes unexpectedly disassembled or ripped out.

and yes Merry Christmas to All

I'm thinking of making a switch tied to the flap of the box with little tape says open here
of course this present will be hand delivered ...don't want fedex/ups complaining
of a box that wont shutup.
and incase someone is very bored and wants to read more of my horrible idea
I plan to have 7 speakers using with it and if possible lots of horrible flashing leds.
so far I have the parts and almost ready for trial runs (with ear plugs)
I might keep a eye on the battery see what it can handle ...if its going to be to hot
I might need some kind of anti fire case around it
I personally don't like surprises but i do like to surprise
your friend from north dah cold ahhhhhhh

Little update of the gift in a box
I used 5 speakers with 5 LM386n-1 and four cheap 9 volt batterys two each in series (2 batterys didn't seem enough power)
one problem I had... when I soldered wires to the ends of the batterys instead of using 9volt connectors (i didn't have any around)
and for some reason a few of the brand new batterys quit working all together...maybe it has some kind of heat safe feature
but after taking a small screw driver and tapping the inside circle of the positive side ...it seemed to fix the problem
its like the battery + end is made to pop out if it gets over temp ... but I'm no battery expert
I used a simple light switch that works perfect when the lid is open and turns quiet into flashing leds and loud jingle tune
I also used a string so the switch (which will be hidden under cloth) can not shut off if the lid is closed
After I have someone gift wrap the out side then its just waiting for gift openings to record the results

I might draw a schematic maybe make it more clearer

Cheap battery probably has internal wires soldered. You just remelted them. A dissection project is in order.

Hmmm, a "tormentin'" gift, in the Newfoundland lingo of my wife. Tormentin' of all varieties, she says, is used only with those you love.

If someone takes offense or appears hurt, "Aw, I was only tormentin'".

Yes thanks westaust55 ...and thanks to it (picaxe tunes download) helped me get started on the simple tune with the tune wizard
1550 miles away is just a little out of our service call mile range :) hopefully your airports don't get cancer like Alantas ATL

@lbenson very true ...everyone in my family knows if gift has "from mark" ...means its "special" and none returnable :)
so I am going to use "from my brothers name" on this one.

@texas your probably right ...makes sense if cheaper batterys use cheaper solder/wire ...that's probably what happened
and by my tapping caused it to make the connection again. good theory tho

UPDATE / RESULTS

Well the project/gift worked awesome ...as I can say ...it sure was a surprising present
and also surprised alot of other friends at the same time...and yes they are still my friends
but now they would highly recommend me just giving gift cards instead... :)
but over all I was pleased to pull off such a wonderful picaxe tune ...that could have been juuuuuuust a little quieter :)
but its mostly thanks to you guys helping me pull it off from all the learning
now i have 362 days to come up with another one
your friend
