is there an easy way to convert a telephone into a microphone, or a microphone that sorta sounds like one?
ya if you have a channel strip plug-in there should be a preset for telephone efect and it sounds very convincingapplejax said:I have a thing that i bought at Radio Shack a while back and it has a suction-cup on it and you put it on the back of the telephone where the ear piece is and it has an 1/8th in jack connector so i have to use a 1/8" to 1/4" adapter then run it into my VS2480 and record phone calls MU HA AHHAHAHA...just joking i only record certain telephone parts for some songs with it...but i have IN THE PAST recorded actual calls...
but Vangore is right...every1 usually uses the telephone EQ effect...if your using a DAW there is usually preset eq's that u can swap onto the input!

The microhphone in your telephone isn't solely responsible for the quality of the call. Your call gets seriously downsampled before being pumped into the reciever at the other end, and the earpiece also plays a big role. So do the amps in the telephones.
