A programme to record mobile phone calls

December 13, 2008 1:00 PM

Hi. I'm just wondering if anyone can recommend a programme to record mobile phone calls i make so that i can edit them in Garageband on my mac? Do i need a specific attachment for my mobile/cellphone?

Not sure if there's an easier method but I bought a Phillips adapter with a mic on it for my iPhone that lets me plug any headphones in and use it like the ear buds. I got it at Target for $10.

With another patch cable it wouldn't be any problem to route the output to the mic-in jack on your computer.

I haven't tried this but it seems fairly straight forward though the sound quality may be lacking.

you could put your phone on speaker and just record the audio using your mac's mic and a program like audio hijack pro.

Are you sure there's not an option to record incoming and outgoing calls, which may appear on the menu when you're in a call? I know most new Nokias can do this.

It would really help to know what sort of phone it is.
