I am working on a comp with audio playback. When i import the audio files, the audio track gets cut off at the very end..its clipped a few seconds and missing few voice overs. When i play it on windows media player its completely fine. Once its imported to after effects, it keeps cutting off towards the end and missing, jumping voice in between too.

 

I tried converting to wav, aac..nothing works. I have updated after effects to the latest version. Check the audio waveform..the marked area is ending abruptly. It is not supposed to end like that. I am on a windows machine with 16gb ram. It is not related to preview. Even the render from media encoder is cut randomly.

Hi jgjg8485,

 

Sorry for your issue.

What's the source of the media? Did you record them or downloaded them? Does it happen with a particular file or any file you import?

Let us know, we're here to help.

 

Thanks,

Nishu

Start by checking the footage interpretation and the project timebase setting. Such issues often come down to such inconsistencies when AE can't correctly detect the sample rate. Likewise check the comp framerate, audio preferences, preview audio settings.
