If you just want to record the audio on a telephone line, the easiest way is a small audio transformer and a capacitor. Say a 10000 Ohm 1:1 audio transformer and about a 0.1 microfarad capacitor rated at 100 volts DC or better in series with the transformer on the phone line side. Connect the secondary to the recorder or computer line input. If you're trying to run voice in both directions from, say, a computer to the phone line, you need a telephone modem, which is explicitly designed to do that job. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
