    Does the backing track need to be stereo?
    If not, just put the click on a channel in whatever DAW you want, pan that hard right, put the mono backing track on another channel and pan that hard left, and you can use a phone or iPod with a headphone splitter to feed the kick and track to your drummer, and using a mono jack cable plugged into the other output of the headphone splitter to just send that left channel (the track) to the front of house.
    Cheap as.
