The program offers a simple mode (for beginners), which was designed according to the LAME authors guidelines (http://lame.sourceforge.net/lame_ui_example.php), and an advanced mode which reveals additional expert options.

This is a very good piece of software.

Everything about this app is good. Some parts are very good. If you don't have a clue what you're doing you can still use this converter. If you have more experience there are enough tweaks to make you happy. I liked the self-contained "no install routine" setup. You can put the extracted file anywhere, run the .exe and it works. Perfect for using on a flash drive. The app is simple and stable and works perfectly as a batch converter. 4 stars.

impressive program

I used Lame Front-End to convert wave files into mp3 files. I have to say it was easy to use and very fast. It was simply a very good software.

IiIIiit`s Excellent.

A fine program. I found it easy to use and I liked the small space it uses to get the job done. I liked the old version as well. Well done.

Version: 1.1

The best I could find, but missed some feats

The program worked fine for me.
One thing I missed was the possibility to have different "tags" for
different files, when converting more than one file at a time.

Also it would be nice to be able to convert to more fomats.
