Logic Pro Crashes When Using Plugin

In the event Logic Pro is crashing when a plugin is used within the project file, it may be due to a CPU usage limit. The following have been known to resolve the issue.

Increase I/O Buffer Size

  1. Open Logic Pro.
  2. Go to Logic Pro > Settings (Preferences) > Audio.
  3. In the Devices tab, locate the I/O Buffer Size setting.
  4. Increase the buffer size (e.g., from 128 to 256 or 512 samples).

NOTE: A higher buffer size reduces CPU load but increases latency.

Adjust CPU Core Usage

  1. Go to Logic Pro > Settings (Preferences) > Audio > Devices.
  2. Look for the Processing Threads setting.
  3. Choose Automatic to let Logic Pro dynamically allocate CPU cores. Alternatively, manually select the maximum available threads if you want to ensure all cores are utilized.
