Just use flac/lame/vorbis-tools, they have all the capabilities you
need.
lame --decode /some/file.mp3 - | \
flac --bps=24 --sample-rate=96 - file.flac
lame --decode /some/file.mp3 - | \
oggenc --resample 24000 -q 6 - -o file.ogg
lame --resample 24 --preset standard /some/file.mp3 file.mp3
Try tweaking quality settings / listening to results in different
formats to pick the best one for you.
ogg and mp3 should result in some loss of sound quality, although it
might be insignificant while compression benefit over flac is quite
noticeable.
