Convert mp3 to wav


Hey guys.. I have some recording software that I am working with.. and I have some mp3 files that I need to convert to wave so that I can import them into my program....

What can I use to convert them?? I though lame would do it. but after reading the man page it looks like it is only for converting wav to mp3 and working with mp3 files. I do not need anything fancy, these are stereo track mp3's that just need to be converted over to a stereo track wav.

Thanks!
Trey

Is it possible to decode a whole folder?

I tried

Code:
lame --decode *.mp3 *wav
lame: excess arg test first.mp3
But it works when I decode only one file ie. as in the example above
