Logic Pro Mastering Assistant Issue! Help! My project of months is no longer working!

I have Logic Pro 10.8.1. I've been working on a project for weeks. I have been using mastering assistant and reanalyzing occasionally as I go with no issue. Sounded great too. Then suddenly it turned on me. If I reanalyze the song it completely blows out the sound and is insanely distorted and the mastering assistant EQ curve looks nuts. I'll screenshot that. I then silenced all my real audio tracks and tried again just to see what would happen. When I do this it suddenly just stops working altogether and acts like the project is empty. I'll screenshot what the mastering assistant looks like when I do this too. I've checked and everything is in stereo. I deleted a bunch of the compressors I had on tracks just to see if my project was overwhelming processing. I have the max buffer size on. Playback is either silent or blown out no matter what I do. Bouncing or exporting the project it sounds exactly the same. I've been on every forum. I've been trying for hours every day to save my work. It happened so suddenly. I tried copy and pasting the mastering assistant from a project that works. I tried copy and pasting the various tracks into a new project. It's happening every time. And it was working totally normally for so long. I don't know what l've done wrong but I'm going insane.

Please help with your wisdom audio mixers! I'm new to this, but decently savvy. Just can't seem to figure it out alone. Thanks in advance!

Ok so I fixed it. After days of tinkering all I ended up doing was turning on a delay designer plug in I had on a single audio track... then suddenly no issues with mastering. Everything is working perfectly again. I'm relieved and confused. So no more problem I'm all good. But suppose I'm still curious why the heck a single delay plug in caused such a devastating issue with the mastering assistant? Just curious if anyone happens to know?
