I think I would use the disk utility to repair permissoins, use the terminal to run the SUDO maintence commands. Then reboot. Maybe run Disk warrior too. If you can get Logic to run I think the first thing I would do is to run the audio unit manager which will check each plugin is good or not. Logic should still run even with bad plugins - they will just be disabled.�
