As long as you have a midi looper,  you can always syncrhonize a drum 
machine with
whatever sound you want as a click  (I prefer a lo agogo on the quarter 
note and
a high agogo, much quieter on whatever the subdivision of the 
'Sub-Pulse" is
(8ths, triplet 8ths, 16ths, triplet 16ths)

then send only the mono out to the drummer making sure that they can
set their own headphone or monitor levels.

In fact, I would only have them wear headphones as the audience will 
hear the
metronome sound otherwise.
