Patching a phone into a Mackie board in V/O booth

Hi, all! I'm a tech-challenged home voice-over guy. I have a Mackie board in the booth with me, but the phantom power for my mic actually comes from a separate Grace Design mic preamp outside. For "old school" phone patch, is there a way to connect either a corded phone directly, or via a Gentner MicroTel box, into the Mackie mixer for two way phone conversation with a client?

recording for VoIP phone systems

I'm recording messages to be used on a VoIP system. Due to software contraints of the phone system, the finished files must conform to CCITT u-Law, 8.000 kHz, 7kb/sec. Bad for the stereo but good for a phone.

The files play back fine within the quality constraints and the voice sounds ok over a phone, but silence is not silent. It sounds like static, white noise.

Request Help: Symetrix TI-101 Phone Patch integration/usage

Hope I am posting this in the correct forum...

I'm trying to get a Symetrix TI-101 phone patch working. My biggest problem...

I use a line splitter to take the phone line into the Symetrix. The other side of the splitter goes to the telephone. To open the phone line, I have to take the handset off the telephone base.
