"Dear Know Hole-ers,
I'm starting to do reviews on YouTube and I need help with the audio for the voiceovers. I'm using a USB headset but I get a lot of echoes and breath sounds.
I'm happy with my camera and lighting, but I need to get my audio sorted and I've only got about $300 to spend. Can you suggest a solution?"
