Default Answering Machine Jingle

I made this up to put on our home answering machine. It's in mono.

Now, the problem is getting it to sound half-way passable on the machine.

I love this idea - I would love to steal it, but my machine is digital with a built in crap mic.

Try boosting a lot of the mids especially the upper mids and cutting most low end when you put it on the actual machine. I'm guessing this would help make everything hearable without getting all muddy on the little speaker. But I'm just kinda guessing here.

Roll off anything under 100hz and over 8k. This should help it on your machine.

*dials to prank call archiegood*

DID I SAY THAT OUT LOUD!?

Raise the vocals, they'll definitely get lost on a low-fi device like an answering machine. Give the vocals a good majority of the high mids so they cut without being too bright.
