"Exclusive Mode" is a Windows 10 feature that allows an application (like Ableton, FL Studio, or Reaper) to take total control of your Behringer interface. The Benefits

Windows won't "squeeze" your audio into a different sample rate (e.g., 44.1kHz to 48kHz).

When you see a hardware ID like behringer2902x642840 , your system is identifying a 64-bit driver path designed for high-speed USB polling. On Windows 10, these drivers act as the bridge between your physical interface and your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW).

Do the exact same thing under the Recording tab for the Behringer input. Troubleshooting Common Driver Issues

If the native Behringer driver is unstable, many pros use the ASIO4ALL driver. It utilizes the same x64 architecture but often provides a more stable buffer management system for older Behringer units.

Right-click the speaker icon in your taskbar and select Sounds .

By bypassing the standard Windows audio engine, the signal goes straight from your DAW to the hardware.
