Logic Pro (X) Library/Channel Strip problems

Hi fuzzfilth,
Thanks very much for the reply. Tried to load a Software track & then an Audio track but that returns the error messages below:
The "1000" figure is crazy - I only have about 5 or 6 projects & none of them have more than a couple of instruments loaded up.

Well, then basic troubleshooting procedure
- Has this ever worked correctly ?
- Has this never worked correctly ?
- If it has happened suddenly, what had changed prior to that ? (new audio interface, new plugin, Logic update, OS update, new computer etc. etc.)
- Did you try a restart ?
- Did you try a cold reboot, including switching the audio interface off and on ?
- Did you allow access to the audio hardware ?
- Does it happen with only the built-in audio input *and* output ?
- Does it happen after logging in as a new user ?

Wow! O.K. Here goes>
I bought Logic about 5 years ago, used it for a little while, haven't really used it much 'till recently - & experienced all these problems.
As I say it was O.K. at first.
Updated OS to Catalina. Delated Logic & redownloaded but that didn't help.
Several times.
Not sure what a 'cold reboot' is, sorry.
When I allow access to the Input Device (Preferences/Devices/AudioBox USB) - nothing happens. If I change to System Settings I get the Initializing Audio stalemate.
It happens all the time - something is really amiss.
Haven't tried that. Not sure how to do that I'm afraid.

...but that was five years ago, right ?
Switch the computer and hardware off, wait a minute, switch it on again.
Did you try deleting Logic's preferences in you>Library>Preferences ?
Go to System Preferences>Users&Groups and create a new user account with admin privileges. Then log out and log in as this new user to get a clean slate. Check if you can get Logic running (first with the built in IO, if that works, try AudioBox USB).

Hi Christian,
Well, tried a 'cold boot' - no change.
Created a new User account. The first time I opened Logic I was inundated with error messages saying no licence could be found for a variety of Softube apps. So I deleted everything I could find of Softube in Applications & Downloads.
The second time I opened Logic - things are just the same - no improvement.

Went to HD/users/<myname>/Library/Preferences but couldn't find anything like 'Logic preferences'.

Now this is strange indeed.
Launching Logic from a new user account is done to circumvent any and all stuff that could have been warped in the original user account. So it usually is a bare-bones-but-at-least-it-works environment. If that doesn't work out, then the problem lies in the commonly used stuff.
Are you sure your Audiobox and its drivers are ready to run on Catalina ? But then, you should be able to launch with the built-in IO without troubles.
Also, Logic 10.5 and up have a new, stricter plugin-validation routine during the first startup which can take *a while*. For how long did you let the spinning rainbow wheel run ? Try letting it run for half a day, it might just sort itself out.

Went to AUDIOBOX website. On their Download page I see that: 'This product has been discontinued'.
So I looked in the Audiobox 'Quick Start Guide' for info on drivers & found this statement:
But, there is a software download offered for a Universal Control for macOS Catalina. Would that be something different to a driver?
