If you don’t record in BIAB, you can use MME. You can also try WAS although I was never able to get that to work when I used Focusrite interfaces.

ASIO is (mostly/usually) limited to one digital audio program at a time. Use it for your DAW.

Sure, there’s a lot more to understanding this. But that’s the bottom line.
