Hey I figured this would be a good place to ask since there is a lot of video editing and the like going on at this forum. Any way I have been trying to make some let's plays and movie riffs for Youtube but the cheap headset and free audio program I have doesn't seem up to it. The audio always comes out really soft and hard to hear. So any way I was wondering if anyone here could recommend a good headset and audio editing program. I don't need anything fancy just something that will pick up my voice at a good volume,$50 each is the most I could spend on each of them. I tried doing a google search but so many reviews contradict each other so I would rather ask here where I can ask questions.

Thanks for your help.
