Logic Pro X audio cuts out on playback, bounce, recording after upgrade to Sonoma

Having issues after upgrading to Sonoma. Whenever I play a project that has about 50 tracks, the audio just cuts out for no reason during playback, recording, bouncing. Goes silent with a little click. Never had this issue before, even with as much or more tracks. Projects with smaller track numbers (5-10) do not have this issue.


I've tried disabling all plugins, freezing multiple tracks still doesn't affect the 50 track project audio cutout issue, this sucks please help!

Having the same exact issue! I was on the phone and shared my screen for 1.5hrs with "experts" over at Apple as I recreated the audio drop multiple times. It cuts into Apple Music and YouTube when there's audio playing at the same time as Logic. As soon as Logic's audio cuts out, those others do at the same time.


There seems to be a CoreAudio issue that lies within Logic Pro in Sonoma (if you're reading this and haven't upgraded yet, DON'T). I'm hoping developers send that update out very soon! My backup DAW (Prx Txxx's) has been a life saver at the moment which is odd because I initially left them 2yrs ago to come to Logic full-time.


Best of luck everyone.
