Just look at the Dial command and the parameter W or w
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+cmd+Dial

extracted from that page :
- w: Allow the called user to start recording after pressing *1 or
what defined in features.conf (Asterisk > v1.0.x)
- W: Allow the calling user to start recording after pressing *1 or
what defined in features.conf (Asterisk > v1.0.x)
