Default Connecting a phone to Mbox2

I need to record some podcasts for my company and I was wondering if anybody knew the best way to connect a phone (Shoretel, corporate system) to the Mbox2 to get a good quality recording of the person on the other end of the phone? ie: an adaptor from an RJ11 (it's actually a different number to that but I haven't contacted Shoretel yet) to a jack/XLR plug.

Thanks,
Bandicoot.

I know this isnt exactly what your after but if you could use 'skype' and audio hijack software then you would have a fairly decent recording. Hijack taps in to your soundcard and draws everything off it. Possibly one to consider. Its a real handy piece of software to have.

Cheers

Check out the Innkeeper PBX from JKAudio.
It connects to the handset. So, you just kick it on once you have them on the line and it takes over the
call. It's very clean and has great seperation between the caller and the studio (If you are sending a signal back to it).

Thank you Dougfather and Audave. That's very helpful. I'll look into both options.
