Audio volume changes when importing into animate

Hi, I've been working on a animation in Animate, and I have been having issues with importing a particular sound. It's supposed to be background music, and it should be pretty quiet, but when importing into animate it is always the same volume (or decibelage). I have checked the audio multiple times, it's

WAV 44 kHz Stereo 16 Bit. Any ideas?

    Arlrighty, here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ex_VUHbQn8QEr2k21uP4_FlEmKJarN8G/view?usp=drive_link


    Your WAV is at 48 000 Hz:

     

    You need to resample it to 44 100 and then import/update in Animate.

    Most likely your audio is not 44 kHz before import. You should check your source before import for that; not what Animate says it is.

    I'm exporting the audio from Audacity. It's 44100Hz in audacity. It's always exported as 44.1kHz 16 Bit

    As @Mario_CR suggested, if you like, post your source WAV and FLA to a file server for inspection.

     

    There is no guarantee that anyone would be able to help you, but it is certain that no one will be able to help you while you claim to be doing everything right, but no one can reproduce the problem and see what is wrong.

    Hi, can you upload the audio file to a server where we can download it to check?
