I'm in need of a link to an inexpensive adapter to use a consumer unit in

are worth twice the cost of the cassette machine it will be attached to.
Since the fidelity of cassettes isn't all that great, the specs on the line
driver need not be super-fabulous.

So get a used one. Bump-boxes show up all the time with the used equipment
suppliers.

Or get a console that can take a consumer level input. Most broadcast
consoles do have some trim resistors that can be swapped out to change
the nominal input levels.
