You will probably need to check and experiment with the buffer sizes in your Audio Interface settings before you do anything else. It's probably set quite high for recording. High is okay for mixing:
"When recording, use the lowest buffer size as possible. When mixing, change it to a higher setting like 1024 or 2048.
The standard buffer sizes are 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096 and 8192.
Higher sample rates = lower latency. 128 samples at 44.1 kHz is slower than 128 samples at 96 kHz, for example".
