How can I solve Logic Pro playback issues?

My Logic session won't play at all. Not just no audio but no playing. It was fine until yesterday. I can position the cursor anywhere but when I hit play it goes to the end of the montage. Audio works fine otherwise.

Is this problem in one specific project? Does a new project work correctly?


Assuming that it is one specific project:

Perhaps you have created a Marquee selection at the end of the project ( with Play from Marquee selection selected)?

Restart computer and open session.

Can you bypass and remove any 3rd party plugins? Might be good to see if you can play the sound out of your built in Mac speakers (might be a problem with your interface).


I understand you are not getting any sound but are you seeing level in the meters at all?


Also, can you please try a brand new session? Drag in some loops and let us know if the problem persists.
