So I'm trying to export this short I'm working. It sounds fine on the timeline but whenever I export the audio sounds compressed and tinny. I recorded it at 48000 Hz 24 bit stereo and all the export settings seem to match so I'm just curious what I might be doing wrong because I've used this same recorder with the same settings for multiple films and have never changed the settings or had this issue.

Setting look fine.

There is no sound in your mov.

this one should have sound, you can hear how bad it sounds best with headphones.

Nope, no sound.

Make sure Default Input in the Audio Hardware in the Preferences is set to No Input.
