miguelitof's Journal: MP3-to-CD

My favorite process to convert songs from MP3 for burning onto CD:

Use lame to decode the files:

lame --decode song.mp3

On the rare occasions that lame doesn't work, I use FreeAmp's WaveOut plugin to convert the MP3.

Once all of the MP3's have been converted to WAV, normalize all of the WAV files in that directory:

normalize -m *.wav

The files are then ready to be burned to CD.
