Welcome
to the MP3 decoder section of MP3-Converter.com. All software features at least a decoding
function, whether stand alone or incorporated into the burning software.
Most listings include more features than just decoding. Some of the mp3 decoders
have been tested for quality by David Robinson, an audio PhD student at
the University of Essex. Click on the decoder test links to view
his results.
If you want a decoder quickly, get software to convert mp3 to wav on our MP3
decoder downloads page.
Why would someone want an MP3 decoder?
The purpose of an mp3
decoder is to convert audio data in compressed format (i.e. mp3) to
uncompressed format like .WAV, AIFF, or PCM. The uncompressed data
can then be edited or burned to a CD for use in most common CD players
(home, car, etc.). When decoding mp3 to wav, you cannot gain any
kind of quality that you had before compression. MP3 is a lossy
format and some of the original audio data has been discarded in the
encoding process and cannot be regained.
