audio sounds different when put into after effects

[Nina228009163qyk]

i made a new comp with just this one audio file and when i put it into after effects it takes out like one layer (?) of the song when put in after effects. like the song sounds like its missing a whole instrument. it sounds normal in the regular audio file and it still does it even with a whole different video from a different platform of the same song. ive tried different downloaders and restarted, just not really sure whats happening

it fixes once rendered, but i would like to be able to hear the missing part while editing

this is the original song 

this is what plays on after effects

Hi Nina,

Thanks for writing in.

The audio sounds really different in After Effects. I see that you imported an MP4 file. Can you try transcoding it into a wav file using Media Encoder and import into After Effects?

Let us know if it helps.

Thanks,

Have you checked the footage interpretation? Playing back the file at a slower speed would inevitably bring back some of the sounds gobbled up by their speedup, especiually when it's so minute. Otherwise converting the file to a more robust format liek WAV might be advisable. I'd also check the file in Audition for a realistic impression of what it is supposed to look and sound like, given how it has been tampered with.
