Default just one song won't respond

Hiya. Forgive me if this has been addressed in a thread already, my search was very specific and was unable to find something related



I have one very specific song I am working on that seems to end up having to force quit as it doesn't respond, indefinitely.
For the most part, I am able to work with my system uninterrupted
Monthly I try and see if there are any updates or fixed bugs, so I am mostly caught up


I am working with PT 11.3.1

Digi 003 Rack
a mid 2010 Power Mac Pro
processor 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 24 GB 1066 MHz DDR3
OS 10.10.5



but with one song.... No matter what I have tried, it seems to always have me force quit. As of recently. About a week ago, I was able to work on the session uninterrupted

I haven't downloaded anything, or changed anything in my system
I run disk utility every day
I trash preferences regularly


This one session comes from a recording session that has 3 songs, all with the same tracks, the same plugins


I thought maybe something was corrupted somewhere, so my first action was to move the entire session older into a relatively new hard drive....that didn't work.....


Then I had tried save as copy in" . I did all of the necessary cleaning up actions and restarted..... That seemed to do the same thing. It doesn't respond within 5 minutes of working on the song
When it happens, usually it's just during playback, sometimes , if I can get as far as editing, it will crash during an audio file edit


So I then I started a new session, called it something else, imported session data , made sure I selected "copy files", so it's a new session and folder all on it's own



Again, it crashed immediately


My next thought was to hopefully be able to open the session, and be able to export all of my audio files and start a new session and see how that pans out


Has anyone had this happen? It's maddening. Almost like just this song is magically cursed! I don't know what else to try. I cannot trash the song, because it is a client, we don't have the option of redoing it all again


I had this happen to another session last year. I eventually gave up on it and surrendered, only because it was my own project
But please, if anyone at all has any insight to how to resolve this issue, I would be immensely grateful


Thank you so much
(sorry for the long explanation),
