Ecasound is popular, mature, robust, versatile, low level.

Nama adds typical DAW abstractions
(projects/tracks/buses/inserts), some algorithms for
generating Ecasound signal processing networks, and its own
command language. The core features are stable fairly
well exercised.  Nama deals with .WAV files, so you
would handle mp3 conversion in a separate step.

Hope this helps.
