Historia powstania dzwonka „Marimba” →

Kelly Jacklin:

Fast forward quite a few years, and the iPhone comes out. I was not involved in development of the iPhone, nor iOS, although I was unsuccessfully courted by the iPod software guy (Tony Fadell) right when I was considering the move to work on audio software (I went to the Pro Apps group at Apple instead). So imagine my surprise when the iPhone ships, and the default text message tone is… „158-marimba”, now going by the clever (and not actually accurate, from a music theory perspective) name „Tri-Tone”. Time goes by, and this sound becomes iconic, showing up in TV shows and movies, and becoming international short-hand for „you have a text message”…

Wow! Who’d have thought?

Nigdy nie używałem tego dzwonka, pomimo że jest on domyślny. Jednak nie dlatego, że mi się nie podoba, tylko po prostu za często spotykam go „na mieście.”
