OK - Ignorant question here. My Zoom H2 allows 'mic gain' to be
controlled independently of 'recording level'. How do these differ
from each other, and how should they be used?

Hi William,
Mic Gain 3 position switch on the side of the unit which coarsely sets the
gain of the analog pre-amplifier for the microphone.

Hi Anthony,
there is also an H1 with a very attractive price tag.
