So I’ve run across this issue several times on TikTok lately and I’d love to get to the bottom of it. I took a quick video last night of some carne asada that I made. Explained the marinade, through it on the grill and listened to it sizzle.
I uploaded the video clip to TikTok and noticed that the audio sound quit a bit different than the original. I recorded this on my iPhone, WITHOUT using headphones so it’s not as if the *sizzle* wasn’t picked up.

So here’s the question… what the hell is going on with TikTok? Am I doing something wrong?
UPDATE – TikTok Audio Noise Reduction!
I figured it out… there’s this nifty NOISE REDUCTION option when uploading to TikTok. That was inadvertently on when I uploaded. Turned it off and BINGO. Did the trick.
Here’s the new (and improved) video with noise reduction turned off!
