Can a person send a certified notarized letter to their ex, in an all party state, informing them that the rest of their phone conversations will be recorded, to ensure that each one involved is respecting the others' rights? Would recording conversations after that point be considered legal?

I don't know if that made sense. Please let me know if I have to clarify it or if there is no making sense of it. Thanks in advance :)

Yes you can do it.. BUT, you *still* have to inform them at the start of every phone call. For a tape to be used in court, it has to contain the notice.

However, there is nothing wrong with your approach to inform them that all calls with be recorded so that they are no surprised and get angry.
