Resolved I've lost my memory, but how do I make a ringtone?

[Midgetinabikini]

I did googled it, and I found a guide that tells me to select the song I want, select the 30 seconds of it, export and change the extension to .m4r

But it didn't works, there's gotta be something I'm missing, most likely the fact that I don't have the ringtone (or tones, don't remember how it was) in my iTunes. Running iPhone 6s with iTunes 12.7.5.9, I already have my .m4r file (in fact, I never deleted that even when I had to use Android device for a year)

Thank You very much.

I have done it thru iTunes already. Latest version. Right click song, then select Options. You can set start stop times.

There are apps also like Ringtones.

Eventually I got tired of re-making them if they got lost and just bought from Store.

When I have them, I save copies to my rMBP. Then I can just drag back to iPhone if they are lost.

As I said, it doesn't work...and it's not a ringtone from the store, or in the store.

I use Audacity to open an audio file, trim it to whatever I want the ringtone to be, normalize the loudness (usually) and then export as .m4a (but change the extension to .m4r). Dragging the exported file to the "Tones" section of a connected device in iTunes is the last step.
