Alpha Channel Too Transparent

I have two clips, one XDCAM and the other ProRes 4444.

The ProRes file has some graphics that are at 75% opacity. When I overlay them on top of the XDCAM clips in After Effects they look correct, but when I try it in Premiere Pro (2020 latest version) the opacity looks more like 50% or lower. I also tried in Vegas Pro 17 and they look correct in there.

I went into the clip interpretation in Premiere and changed the alpha channel manually, but there's really only one option - premultiplied, and nothing I change it to makes the opacity any different. Is there a way to fix this?
 
I had to dig this up again as I've seen the problem before but couldn't remember what I did to overcome the problem. It was:

Different gamma spaces.

Check the following out. AE is blending in a gamma-encoded space but maybe Premiere is blending in a linear space when the GPU acceleration is on.
Try opening your Premiere project preferences and uncheck 'Composite in linear color (requires GPU or max render quality.)

Found it in sequence settings, and it did the trick! Thank you, you're a lifesaver!
