LAME

LAME MP3 Encoder is an application that is used to encode audio in MP3. LAME uses three different compression methods.

When there is a common solution for defining the bitrate of the whole file and a predictable file size, the CBR method can be applied as an option. This method can only be used if the software or hardware decoding it is built on is compatible with only such codec. In other cases, the CBR method is not welcomed due to the large size of the final file.

The VBR method is the most popular. Rather than using an arbitrary bitrate selection, the file is given the choice not only to have audio quality, but a user can customize the bitrate based on its complexity. If you do not want a high quality file, using the Variable Bitrate method to get smaller files.

- the last one I used The last compression method - ABR - The combination of the two methods describes above is also known as the multidimensional approach. You can choose the lowest audio bitrate in a way that leaves the resulting value relatively close to it, while still keeping a decent quality. This is how you get files with constant bitrate and more or less compact size.

LAME MP3 Encoder works in command line mode, so before using it you should read the information that is in the downloaded package. Its syntax is very simple and it contains: As follows, the command syntax consists of very simple and consists of the following template: You can view [options] Output File where you can specify a bitrate, quality, or compression method.

encoder library is free and cannot be downloaded directly. However, it is available on a USB stick as source code. in mind, here are a couple alternatives.to-If you are interested in utilizing editors such as winLAME, or Audacity, using a LAME MP3 Encoder, you can download them.
