How to Record Phone Calls |
Recording telephone calls requires software, recording device and cables. In the most
simplistic form, when recording calls from a single line telephone, you will need an
adapter or device that connects to a telephone jack/line from your telephone.
You can record from portable telephones as long as the recorder is connected to the
base unit. In order to log these calls and have records, you will install software on your
computer. There will be a cable that connects from the recorder device to the USB port
on the computer. A cable that connects from the telephone jack to the recorder device.
Depending on the product you have purchased, the recorder can be configured to record
all calls by voice activation, or you manually select the calls you want to record. If you are
using this in your home, and have only one telephone line, you may want to manually
select the recording of calls. This is accomplished through the interface on your
computer.
Telephone recorders are available in all sizes, from recording a single line to multi line
operations. There are stand alone recorders with their own hard drives and there are
models available that connect to the USB port on a computer. Recording devices that
connect to a PC, store the phone recordings on the hard drive of the computer.
Cell Phone Recording requires the use of a service. You dial the telephone number
provided by the service prior to making the call and then dial the number to be recorded.
If you require cell calls to be recorded on the fly, there is another type of service available
that will give you a telephone number to use to record all incoming and outgoing calls.
Both of these services charge by the minute for recordings.
Larger applications with multi line recording requirements will require a more robust
phone recorder. In most cases setting up the smaller applications can be
accomplished by virtually anyone.
