JOSM is capable of synchronising any continuously recorded audio to a 
GPS track with waypoints. So if you can create a waypoint with a single 
click and then dictate the information, this shows up in JOSM as a 
button which when you press it jumps to that part of the audio.

I don't kbnow what Android apps do that, but the point is JOSM is quite 
flexible at the desktop end. If you end up with a MP3, you can convert 
to WAV using Audacity or similar.

I use a stand alone Olympus digital voice recorder - the audio doesn't 
have to be recorded on the same device as the GPS.
