Instruments holding out past note value

• Jul 5, 2023 - 19:38

The song I'm working on starts out with most of the band holding out a whole note followed by a quarter note hit by the entire band. Problem is, for whatever reason, many of the instruments are holding out past the whole note and making the beginning sound very muddy. Originally I had a fermata on the first whole note, however, I deleted the fermata after this issue started, yet the issue persists. Anyone have any ideas of what's going on or how to fix it?
