The OP asked for suggestions for equipment and suggestions to play backing tracks. He got lots of ideas. Is anyone arguing?

I’ve performed with backing tracks, recordings and devices of all kinds since 1965. At one point that included laptop computers running my string section writing in BIAB. Now it’s a Tascam Wave/MP3/Flac player with built-in Bluetooth.
