winLAME

An easy to use encoder for many audio formats, including MP3, Opus, Ogg Vorbis and more.

Visit winLAME

winLAME is a Windows audio encoding application that reads audio tracks from CDs or encodes audio files from disk. It uses the LAME MP3 encoder alongside codecs for Opus, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, Speex and Monkey's Audio, plus many other formats via libSndfile and the BASS audio library. A wizard-style interface walks through encoding settings, and multicore CPUs are used to encode multiple tracks in parallel.
