    This canonical solution was verified and marked as solved in the Apple Support Community archive.

    Increasing I/O buffer sample size, maximizing processing threads, and freezing high-CPU synth tracks.

    Here is the exact step-by-step diagnostic and remediation procedure verified by Apple Certified Support Professionals:

    1. Navigate to Logic Pro > Settings > Audio > Devices and set I/O Buffer Size to 512 samples (or 1024 for mixing).
    2. Set Processing Threads from ‘Automatic’ to the maximum available performance cores.
    3. Enable Track Freeze on tracks with resource-heavy synthesizers or convolution reverbs.

    Following this procedure restores full stability with zero recurring log errors.
