    It's much better to use multiple lines; it's easier to read and to
    modify.

    And there's no need for the external commands basename and tr:

mp3dec() {
   for i in *.mp3
   do
     lame --decode "$i" "${i%.mp3}.wav"
   done
}

mp3ren() {
   for i in *.mp3
   do
      mv "$i" "${i// /_}"
   done
}
