Ever since I upgraded to Logic 10.5.0 update, almost every alchemy and sample track in my last few projects have been corrupted and sound like a bunch of robot noises when I try to play them back. Also, logic has been repeatedly crashing and freezing up and sometimes the playhead button in the project window refuses to work. Has anyone else been experiencing this problem?! Apple please fix!

You should set your App Store prefs so that you update manually. That way you won't be caught off guard.
Also, before you ever update Logic Pro, make a compressed copy of your current Logic app so that you can go back to an older version (eg 10.4.8) if there are problems with the new one (eg 10.5).
No professional or semi-professional EVER let's their machine update automatically, sorry you had to learn the hard way.
If you haven't noticed, the User Base is now the beta-test team, if you're unhappy about the situation let Apple know as it will only get worse.
Yes, thankfully I was able to pull up the earlier version of Logic, and recover my project. I have not tried deselecting the Catch options yet, but I will go ahead and try that out to see if it works. :)
Yes! Logic updated automatically on my Mac yesterday and it was working great, then all of a sudden I went to playback my tracks and it changed what they sounded like, it was all corrupted. My Mac is completely up to date and I have tried restarting my computer and restarting Logic but nothing has helped. I thought I was the only one with this issue! I haven't found anything online yet on how to fix this issue.
Hi Carson, were you able to zip the previous version of Logic (10.4.x) up prior to upgrading? I got burnt a few versions prior and it's now suggested practice by Apple on their release notes page. With major updates it's definitely worth having the previous version backed up just in case you have issues on important projects that you can still open in the previous version, and test the new update without saving your project so the older version of Logic doesn't have headaches. I've not had this problem badly but I was able to mitigate the playhead button issue by control + clicking the icon in Arrange and deselecting all the Catch options, as well as creating a key command for it. You may have already done this?
The playhead issue is a known major bug. There's nothing we can do but wait, unfortunately.
Yes, I will be disabling automatic updates from this time forward :)
Glad to know that this is happening to others, and not just an individual issue with my system/application.
Please fix new Logic Pro 10.5.0 Update!
