If I understand correctly the handouts and possible audio/video records
belong to the host of the conference. Therefore you should talk to them
about this issue. It can be ORA, Camelot or any other conference
organizer.
Another possibility is to organize a training session which will be hosted
by you for example and then you will be able to make the recording with
the only permission of the speakers.
Of course if your intention is to make money by selling the recordings,
you will have to pay a certain percentage to the "artists".
BTW, I think that if you are serious about doing this project, I believe
that the only way to do that is in the video format. It's hard to imagine
the slide and see where the speaker points to with his laser on the audio
recording. Audio format is fine for keynotes, but not for tutorials.
