I think what the OP wants to do is use Audition, in effect, as an outboard processor while streaming audio live to the net rather than simply recording it. Please tell me if I have this wrong, Thomase? From what I can see, he's trying to route the input (with effects) to the web rather than just to a headphone output--at least that's what I think they're doing with Virtual Audio Cable in the video he links to. This obviously isn't what most audio software is made for--even in live use, normally you take an output of the computer to a PA system or whatever rather than streaming it. Soundflower is suggested as one of the Mac-compatible equivalents to VAC. From what I can read on line, it sounds like it SHOULD be able to do the job. However, if it's anything like VAC, the set up is a pain and takes a lot of fiddling to get things going where you want...so it might be worth playing some more. Also, I did some Googling and came up with another app called "Sound Siphon" which specifically says it can be used for streaming. It might be worth a try.

At the economy end, I might suggest a Sennheiser e835 which is flattering on many voices. A bit of soft stuff around the room and working in close for proximity effect and it might sound quite good. Couple this with a cheap mixer like a Behringer Xenyx Q series and you'll get basic EQ and simple compression (with a USB out) and you'd probably get what you want in a package actually designed to work that way (and sorry Adobe if I talk you out of a sale!).
