    I am rendering a project with 3 or 4 nested comps and an mp3 as the audio track, and the audio skips every other second. I am using Vista with a 2.4 ghz proc and 1gb RAM. Also, AE 7 Pro.

    Thanks a lot!

    I’m not sure if this is your problem but I recommend never using MP3s as audio tracks, they are compressed quite a bit and although they sound alright they are difficult to work with.

    If all you have is an MP3 then I’d recommend converting it to a WAV or AIFF which will give you an opportunity to make sure you are using the proper settings: 48khz and 16bit stereo sound.

    To be more specific, the problem you are describing usually occurs when you try to render out a 44.1khz (or lower) audio file at 48khz.

    I was about to say, as atated above, It could be an issue of the source audio sampling frequency being different from the output’s sampling frequency.
