Mainstage 3.6 keeps crashing

Sometimes it crashes as soon as I open it. Other times the sound starts to become distorted and I end up having to close Mainstage and restart my Macbook Pro M1. The only thing I can think of is that my audio interface (Presonus Audio Box 44 VSL) doesn't like the little wing dongle that I have on the side of my laptop to convert the USB C to regular USB. I ordered a regular USB to USB C cable and it should be arriving tomorrow. We'll see if that fixes the issue.

I copied one of the crash reports into a text file.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.3

I called Apple Customer Support and they alerted me to this. We updated Mainstage and also the Presonus Universal Control application for my interface. I also started using the USB C cable and everything seems to be working better now. No crashes.
