Hi Gang
As with many pro live performing bands who have come to rely heavily
on the simple option of 'press play' ... 'press stop' etc. ... in
other words the simple mini disc player, I am now in a quandry. [we
have all the added instruments on track playing with our band]
My charity 'The Grand Order of Water Rats' have eventually bitten the
bullet and accepted that we need backing track music for our Lodge
Meetings ... although we have as members Brian May, Rick Wakeman, Mike
Batt, John Lodge [Moody Blues], Niko Mc Brain [Iron Maiden] etc.
etc. ... and me!
I donated the cost of recording the whole deal ... pretty expensive
but awesome ... I got some pals to donate the playback equipment and I
got the main powered speakers at cost price ... now the problem.
The ideal 'idiot proof' playback system would be minidisc player ...
but none available have 'autopause' .... essential in this particular
situation. I bought the Sony MDS-JE480, only to find no 'auto-pause'.
The guys who have the time to go to Lodge do not have great computer/
musical knowledge. And we cannot spend charity money on a mega
expensive, complicated, solution.
What is the option?
What would give us a simple solution that anyone can operate? Is
there a chunky MP3 player with big display available with 'auto-
pause', maybe? CD player would be out of the question ... no name
display and finger marks would be a nightmare.
I would appreciate help here!
