I love my iPhone but I need to have escalating alarm music... I don't want it to be at 100% volume instantly!

Is there someway I can get this working on my phone? I tried making a ringtone with escalation manually, but apparently you can only sync ringtones that are 30 seconds or less through iTunes.

Thanks!
 
That's because your answering system will pick up after about 22 seconds. Use an audio editor to trim it to 30 seconds. Audacity (free) or even Garageband will work.

You misunderstood my problem :p

I don't want to actually use it as a ringtone, I want to use it as an alarm (~5 minute song with escalating volume) as the Clock app draws custom alarms from the ringtones.

Or I'm looking for some 3rd party way to get escalating alarms/custom alarms working.

Ahhh, I did misunderstand. Sorry.
