Can I make my ringtone progress from Soft-->Loud (mp3)?

Is there a program or something that will allow progressively increasing volume on my xv6900? My wife has a centro and her ringtones go from soft to very loud. I'd like something like that on my phone. I have my ringtone set to an mp3 and I have it set to "increasing ring" but it doesn't seem to get louder. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks.

My guess on the "increasing ring" is that each instance of the ringtone gets increasingly louder, meaning that if you have a long ringtone (which wouldn't repeat) the sound level wouldn't change.

One way around this would be to edit the audio file itself using Audacity. Open the MP3, select all and then select Fade In. That should make the volume of the MP3 start extremely soft and slowly fade up through the song. You could also just select the first few seconds so the tone gets to full volume quicker.
