To start writing Audio application, we will consider the platform that we would be most suitable for it suppose and supports for API and it availability and ease of use.
We will use Java API to write application that would aid us in converting any audio format to .mp3. Before we start analysis and programming, we will look at the Java API for audio format.
The Java Sound API specification provides low-level support for audio operations such as audio playback and capture (recording), mixing, MIDI sequencing, and MIDI synthesis in an extensible, flexible framework.
To start development we would like to know where all the API lives in JSE (Java Second Edition)
javax.sound.sampled javax.sound.midi
Acquaint yourselfs with these API, we will later make use of them. Right now, we will develop a GUI, using Swings from JSE that will form the user interaction.

Remember what I said in a previous thread that before you start any GUI development it is good that you have idea of what it is that you want to develop by sketch or drawing of the proposed GUI.
I have a simple GUI that I would proposed, but it is of no less the most better one, if you have a better proposed GUI, post it here so we can agree and develop it.
As soon as we agree on the GUI, we will start the development. Meantime, acquaint yourselves with the API's above.

I, for one would suggest as simple a GUI as possible, for now; I'm more interested in the workings of the software, for now, also.

Can't wait for this to get started. It probably can be extended to cover as many format as it possibly can.
@diddy, just get your jdk(Version1.5.0 possibly) and a text editor and you are ready to roll. Or what else do you want to know?

@ diddy, Yes, it would be able to convert back and forth - if we programme it so! And, yes, just get your jdk1.5 (or jdk 1.4 - more stable with some systems) and a text editor see for more details: http://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-6848.0.html@Parosky and everybody else Yes, I also can't wait; but hope we ALL encourage Sbucareer, too!

I will continue I promise, just that I have not really got time to sit down and write the code. You may see me respond to comments, it does not mean I have time. Responding to a comments are easy compare to writing code.
I will write the code some time this month when I will be off from work for a week. Beside, I have given you all what you need to write the code yourself. I provided the Java API for sound and audio. Do something if you run into trouble I will help.
But if you want to seat your ass down and wait for my solution, you have to be patient.
