Bad audio quality after rendering in After Effects CC 2018

Hi! im currently having an issue with a bad audio quality in AE. the thing is that when i render a comp with a song i'd like to use, the quality just becomes so bad after i finish rendering it. it literally sounds as if it was duplicated 15 times (it's really loud and hurts my ears). i've tried many tips my friends gave me and the ones i found on other forums but none of them seem to work! i have no access to Adobe Media Encoder either. my render settings are H.264 and the audio settings are 48.000 kHz stereo. does anyone know how i can make the quality better? thank you!

First question, did you alter the audio? Also, why not access to AME?

yes, i added a bunch of audio effects over it but nothing else, also, i can't access to AME, there seems to be an issue with it when i try to open it (which i'll look up a solution for later). for now i'm really just looking for a way to render the audio in AE itself

You should not ever rely on AE for any significant audio processing. A little level control or minimal eq is about all you'll get. If the original audio is an MP3 you are asking for trouble. Monkeying with the default audio settings in the AME is also asking for trouble. Workflow details and screenshots of the modified properties of the audio layers (uu) would help us help you. Just saying you are having problems with audio does not give us any idea what your workflow looks like.
