The quest for the perfect tone is one of the biggest challenges a guitar player will embark upon. While this process can be a long and tedious journey, it is well worth the effort in the end. The problem faced by many players is how to get the desired tone recorded in its pure form without any coloration to the original sound. In a professional studio, this is typically accomplished by selecting a high quality microphone generally preferred from the most recognized and popular microphone types; tube, condenser, dynamic or ribbon. While each of these type of microphones can add their own “flavor” to the sound, the real object is to not allow ANY COLORATION to change the tone that the guitar player is hearing! The condenser microphone is probably the most popular style used in home studios because it’s great versatility, sensitivity, and would definitely be the microphone type of choice because they are much less likely to “color” the sound then the other types. Condensers are often used on acoustic guitars, pianos, overhead drums, cymbals, electric guitars, string instruments, and many other instruments where coloration isn’t a desired result. Transparent sound and very sensitive to even extremely subtle tonal changes is the major advantages to Condenser mics.

The introduction of the Field Electronics Transistor (FET) made condenser microphones smaller, and more affordable than the early versions. Since then the microphone market has exploded with offerings from several companies and price ranges anywhere from under one hundred dollars to several thousand dollars. However, like with many products today, more expensive does not always mean better.

For this review, we are going to look at the CK-7 by Avantone. This true FET microphone boasts high end features and sounds at a price that is very friendly to the budget conscious home recording studio owner. Don’t let the price fool you. The Avantone microphones are so good that they are quickly gaining the respect of professional recording engineers around the world.
