I have a PC but I don't own a laptop. My PC is plugged into an amp & any music I play sounds great. I have "ITunes" installed in my PC with all my MP3 backing tracks. It is a simple procedure to select a particular tune and start it, stop it, start over, select a different tune, etc. etc. I also have a Nano Ipod with the same MP3's loaded. However, my fingers are not so nimble these days, the Ipod is small. I don't gig a lot anymore but I do some. Starting the wrong tune is a pain. Posted a similar question here recently & as a result purchased a DVD player. A good idea. Backing tracks sound super but selecting a track is not easy. My Question is...Could I not pick up an old laptop, install ITunes, load my MP3's, line out to the PA & use that on my gig? My gig is this Friday, so the clock is ticking.
Thanks for your patient reading....Hank
