Question

How do I record a phone conversation?

Answer 1

yes....call 1-800- ****

Answer 2

If you have mobile phone that don't have a voice recorder then you can't do so. You have to mention the mobile phone handset name also so that any body can tell you that what is the right process for recording of phone conversation.

By the way if you have latest Nokia Mobile Phone like Nokia N70, N73 or Nokia N93 Communicator, there is the facility that when you talk to others , you just switch on the voice recorder. The conversation will be recorded in your mobile phone and you could listen it after.

Answer 3

Usually, while your in the call,  press options and then look for something like "Record" or "Save".

Answer 4

I don't know if you can still buy it or not, but there use to be a pick-up coil that had a suction cup on it you could attach on the handset near the speaker end. Then you would plug it into a recorder or your computer's sound card input.

Answer 5

Well... I do believe they make equiptment especially made to such for regular landline phones... I'm sure you could find something on the web.  If you mean a cell phone, however, if it doesn't have that feature built it.. it could be trickier.  I know my cellular phone... if I hit the voice record feature during a call, it will record what the person I'm talking to is saying.. but not my own voice oddly enough.

Another and probably more complicated way to record a phone conversation is by using the headset connectors found on many cellular and regular landline phones.  Many phones have headset connectors, which are very similar to regular headphone connectors (3.5mm) but are smaller (2.5mm). I once, in order to record some older messages from my answering machine to my computer, used my phones 2.5mm jack with a 2.5 to 3.5 adapter... then just used a male to male 3.5 stereo cable to hook it up to my computers audio/microsphone input jacks.  You can use the same method to connector a computer or standalone tape recorder.

Obviously in your case though you'll need a way to hear the conversation and talk back while recording.  You'd need some way to split the headset connector so you can plug in an actual headset to listen and talk.. while the other end is being sent to the recording device.  Complicated I know.. but I thought I'd put it out their.

If you need to record off a cellphone that doesn't use the 2.5mm headset jacks.. your options are short.  Ultimatley you can always just go with a microphone/recorder near your phones speaker... might not be the best quality method but it's the simplest.  You can buy a tiny personal recorder for pretty cheap. What i might suggest is to hook one of those up with a lavalier microphone (those tiny clip on ones) and then you can place the tiny mic right near the phones earpiece during the phone conversation.

Just some thoughts.
