Great advice from Darryl, as always.
Some of the Behringer lower tier interfaces only use ASIO4All as a driver.
Yes, you really do need a proper interface with a real ASIO driver. Here are two to consider, especially as they have Loopback, which would be good to have if you need to be remote directed. [SonoBus is great (
www.sonobus.net) if you want to collaborate remotely.]

And, while not intended to steer you away from Pro Tools - I've been using it for over 21 years and not going to use anything else - if you don't need Pro Tools, look at
www.reaper.fm. It is more forgiving about computer specifications and optimizations.
That said, for any DAW, you really should do all the optimizations AND use a proper interface with an ASIO driver.
Do note, on Windows, do not use the interface for Windows sounds and audio, use it strictly for your DAW. In Control Panel>Sound in the Playback and Recording Tabs, disable any instance of your interface - and check it is still disabled after any Windows update as some updates will default the sound settings.
