FreePBX – convert WAV call recordings to MP3

One of our customers recently reported an interesting issue. They were running FreePBX on a machine with a very small amount of hard drive space. Usually, this would not be an issue, as FreePBX can be installed easily onto a small drive, even less than 10GB (I have a moment of reflection now, thinking that actually 10GB is massive!!)

In any case, when you start recording calls on a system, the free space is quickly eaten up.
Within FreePBX, there is no way to set the call recording to MP3, and as a result, large WAV files are created.
