Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 one of my bands did this 4 years ago with mp3 players/laptops to a mixer the way we did it so you can use an mp3 player for back up or whatever is we had our backing tracks the hard right of a stereo wav and the click all the way hard left so you could split em and the drummer could listen to both/change the panning on his mixer whatever and just send the house mixer the mono backing track Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/56238-live-drummer-playing-along-to-track/#findComment-1324768 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 you can if you have a laptop with an interface that has multiple buses for outputs obviously but yeh being able to this with an mp3 player in mono is convenient though Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/56238-live-drummer-playing-along-to-track/#findComment-1326257 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest E150 Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 If you're using something that has midi there's this thingy - http://www.clickkicker.com/ Though do I interpret right that you want to play to a recorded track? Like an MP3? For anyone else reading this... I actually have a similar issue. I play in a band where we have a live drummer and a bunch of analogue gear. To get a click we'll usually put hi hats in a set of headphones, but its a terrible waste of an instrument. I want to get a hardware device (like the click kicker) that does it... but that click kicker is $289. Might just be the price of getting something dedicated like that... but I figured it'd be less expensive for just a click device. :) Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/56238-live-drummer-playing-along-to-track/#findComment-1330604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
