Hey all, I'm brand new to after effects and i am not really sure what in the world is causing the music playback to be slowed and vary like it does. I'm going to include a capture that plays the start of a song correctly first then shows how it sounds in After Effects.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Expand the Info Panel and you should see the playback frame rate. The audio is slowing down because the system isn't keeping up. Don't expect AE to playback in real-time without fully rendering a preview. There are options in the Preferences to mute audio if not playing back in real-time and there are options in the Preview Panel to cache before playback. Just because all of the frames show rendered to cache (the green line) doesn't mean they will playback in real-time.
