I looked into this a while ago, and I'll offer a few things I found: First, recording regulations vary state-to-state in the US and even more widely elsewhere. In the US, there are some states that require the knowledge and consent of both parties to record a call, and others that require only one party to record a call (meaning you can record the call, because you consent without telling the other person). Check to see what your state requires before you do it.
If you are recording something that is already a conference call, you will have a hard time doing this. Most conference calling services offer the ability to record a call (cost varies), but generally the host of the call must do this, and other participants can't. When I was looking around, I found an app called "Recorder" that will record calls. I think it only handles one-to-one calls, and requires calling a third party service to do this. You might look at this. Google voice also offers the ability to record a call - it may be able to record an outbound call, so you can use it to dial in to your conference calls and then get your own recording. If you are in a fixed location and the same location every time you make a call you want to record, there are also switch-box-type devices (I got one at Radio Shack) that plug into a phone, a headset and a recording device that will do this. Again, make sure it's legal in your state or location. Hope that helps!
