A crash report is generally hard to read, but an incomplete one is impossible read.

The crash while scanning Audio-Units, might indicate an incompatible plugin. Look where the scan stops, this might point to the (incompatible) plugin.

If you are not able to open Logic, try to Use startup modifier keys with Logic Pro for Mac - Apple Support

After a successful boot of Logic, open the Plug-in Manager and look for plugins which failed validation. Uncheck "Use". I personally would remove them from Component folder of my computer.

Just a question, that might not relate to you issue, why don't you update to 10.5.1 which works perfectly with MacOS 10.14.6? However create a backup before updating or changing anything.

I'm using a desktop Hackintosh build and, regrettably, do not understand as many of the ins and outs of it as is needed to troubleshoot this adequately. AFAIK, I can't update any of the applications beyond where they are currently. My build doesn't allow for certain functions, but it's never given me trouble in the 3+ years of using it. I had to delete some of the crash report to meet the character limit for the post. Here's what else I've tried so far:

Removing all of the files from the /Components folder in my library
Deleted the com.apple.logic10.plist file from my /Preferences folder

Still crashing in the same spot each time. I can share more of the report findings if you can tell me what I'm looking for. Thanks for taking the time to reply and for giving me some hope I might still figure this out.

There are two Component folder locations:

/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/

and

~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/

You need also to restart your computer after removing the plugins from your computer. Have you tríed the different startup modifier keys?
