Instrumentalists with H2-Zoom: do you use the metronome/tuner?

<p>as the title says, I’m wondering if instrumentalists who have the Zoom H2 use the built in tuner/metronome. And how it compares to a separate, stand alone tuner/metronome.</p>

<p>We need both (ie, a digital recorder and a tuner/metronome). I’m debating whether to get the Zoom H2 to have it all built in, or the Zoom Q3 plus a replacement tuner/metronome (and, if so, which…). </p>

<p>When I gave DD a quick run down on the 2 models, she opted for the H2 because of the built-in tuner/metronome, and we’d upgrade to video when the Q3 is upgraded. But, if the H2’s tuner/metronome feature is inferior, we’ll get the Q3 and a separate tuner/metronome. (fortunately, her bday is right around the corner)</p>

<p>update: hs music teacher says the tuner is good on the H4 but the metronome is not</p>

<p>I only know the H-2 and its recording quality is excellent.</p>

<p>We have the H2 and like compmom feel the recording is top quality. Son uses stand alone metronome - not sure he realizes there is one built in.
He uses the H2 constantly - great investment for a musician.</p>

<p>DS uses his Dr. Beat. H2 for recording only.</p>
