Hello Zach, Probably the best solution is an old-skool hardware phone pickup mic that you can plug into your own hardware voice recorder/dictaphone. Olympus do these sorts of things and the new ones work fine with mobile phones. Good luck!

We are looking for solutions to record the interviews locally (so that we can transcribe them), but also maintain the privacy of the interviewees. We have considered various options (from conducting the interview over loudspeaker with a recorder next to it, to using Google Voice, to using subscription services). We have decided against services that ‘join’ the call as a conference call participant and send you the recording because we would like to maintain full control over the recorded data (again, for ethical reasons). So, we were wondering what the experience of the community here has been. Are there any recent and reliable tools that people here are using? What have you found to work well? Thanks!
