I just upgraded to Monterey 12.6.1 and my Garage Band has not worked ever since.

I am a music teacher and recording musician and Garage Band is my core piece of equipment for recording all of my compositions and my students are waiting for the audio they asked for 12 days ago! My main reason for buying and using my Macbook Pro and all my Music Studio equipment was for Garage Band. Help!

I got the same error message as mads0 (above) and the full code error report should have been automatically received at Apple as it happened, I also sent a comment / message to apple since then. Nothing has come back to correct this major problem.

I have a mid 2015 MacBook Retina 15inch
