Doug Anderson shows you how to leverage your Skype Calls using SoliCall

Yesterday I had a dilemma – I had to be on two calls at the same time.

If only I could duplicate myself…

Since my clones were busy doing other things, I decided to record the Skype call (it was a listen-only teleconference). Then I decided to share with you how to do it on my blog.

First, you’ll need to download SoliCall onto your computer from www.solicall.com.

Once you go through the configuration, you simply go to your General Settings >> Audio Settings in Skype and select SoliCall as both the mic (input) and speakers (output). All this does is puts SoliCall “in-line” with Skype, so it taps into the call.

Next, simply “enable recording” in the SoliCall menu, and you’re “good-to-go” for recording Skype calls.

Also, select MP3 as the format, as it’s much smaller than the alternatives.

A little SoliCall icon shows up in the windows tray at the bottom of the screen. This comes in handy when you want to find where those recordings are stored. Simply open up the recordings library, and there are your recordings!

Now you can record one teleconference while making another phone call.  Two places at once? Now that’s leverage!
