converting mp3 to ogg

[Zortik 15]

So, google has a billion answers... but many of them are on free to use website with tricky catches / gimmicks.

 

What I'm trying to learn from the community is this:

 

I want to convert an .mp3 song into .ogg so I can use it in RPGMaker MV.

 

I don't know what tool/application/site to use.

I don't know if I need to select additional options/tuning/settings/etc to maintain or improve quality

 

I have windows media player, and that's pretty much it.

 

Thanks

Audacity is the best (and popular) free audio-editing program, that I got to work with.

It has many features and it easily can export .mp3 file to .ogg.

It's a 'must have' for me. (=

I use Audacity, but for better conversion and better audio compression I use Adobe Audition CS6.

Yeah but Adobe products cost teh monies. Anyway my recommendation is to not convert from MP3 when possible, instead see if you can find a copy of the song in a lossless format like .WAV or .FLAC and convert that to .OGG instead. But, I admit, I don't know if it makes that much of a difference.

Reaper.

 

I cannot recommend Reaper enough.  Before I bought Cubase it was my 100 percent go-to DAW program.  It does most of the stuff the big boys do for hundreds upon hundreds of dollars, at zero cost to you (they ask that you buy a license after a few months...but you don't actually have to do it, the program doesn't stop working).

 

Reaper can convert to every audio type imaginable.  Including ogg

I use a lot of websites because I'm not fancy (or maybe just too cheap? ) for nice programs. XD

I know I use these pretty often; they come in handy when I just need to swap out some file extensions haha. c;
