Program to decompress MP3s?
Is there a way to decompress MP3s then edit in a music program (like Logic). I want to make good quality backtracks so is there any program that can do this?

You can't "decompress" mp3 files.
They are what is known as a "lossy" format.
Audio information is lost (disregarded) to enable a smaller file size.
Once it is gone there is no way to retrieve it.
If compressed to a bitrate of 128 kbps or more there is generally no obvious difference to the sound.
The files can be converted to wav format but will still only have the audio information contained in the mp3.
**The only real way to detect any difference is to do a direct A-B comparison between the original source file and the mp3. That is to switch directly from one to the other and back again while both are playing at the same time. A proper assessment CANNOT be made any other way.
To convert your files try this one from Koyote Soft.

Yes you can do it.
But MP3 compressed files are the worst place to start as it is the lowest quality you can get.
If you want good quality tracks then start from good quality audio like WAV files.
