Silvertones uses Real Band live for his gigs instead of prerecorded tracks. He reasoning is that's the best way to solve the mixing problem. He uses an 8 output interface and sets RB up to route each track to it's own in/out on the interface. Then he runs each interface output to his mixer. That gives him full and complete control over each track just like having a soundman at a big show.

Of course that certainly adds a level of complexity because now you're using a laptop live with a large interface and all the cabling but he's been doing that for years. There are ways to shortcut the setup and tear down. If you're interested in the details just do a forum search for username Silvertones, he's written a lot about all of this.

If this doesn't appeal to you then one trick to try is don't mix your tracks using your home studio system, mix using your PA.
