Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

My first guess would be that you have a plugin that misbehaving

Move everything out of /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components, maybe to a folder on your desktop
Also check ~ /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
Start up Logic or Garageband and see how it goes

If it works, then:
1) close Logic
2) move a single plugin back to the folder it came from
3) start Logic
4) if it runs fine, then go to step 1 and repeat until you have no more plugins to move

This will let you narrow down which plugin is misbehaving.
