In the beginning god created
The Heaven and the Earth, elated.
Earth was there, but void, no pith;
No form to hold or comfort with.

Around without, was darken'd trace,
Across the deep wet water's face.
Eyes, without a seeing face performed,
The Spirit 'cross the waters warmed.

Convert all .wav files to .mp3

for i in *.wav; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -vn -ar 44100 -ac 2 -b:a 192k "${i%.*}.mp3"; done

• I don't have time to look up -vn, -ar, -ac or -b:a.
• 44100 is fine for almost all cases.
• Use common quality values like [64k, 128k, 192k, 256k, 320k]
