Kevin,
You could pick up an inexpensive Berringer mixer for about 50 of our
earth pounds. That would give you 2 mic inputs, and 2 stereo
inputs. The stereo inputs are achieved via 2 pairs of phone jacks
known as quarter inch jacks, so you may well need a bunch of jack to
R C A fono adapters.
I note in your original message that you also want to connect a third
input device, in this case, get yourself a 2-way switch connect the
cd player to 1 input, second cassette deck into the second, and the
output back to the mixer which also has the first deck in the first
input. There are obviously many alternatives for configuring your
audio players. When you look for mixers that support three or more
stereo inputs, the price for some reason gets a little silly, the
manufacturers seem to increase the number of Microphone inputs first,
and line-in inputs next in line.
The splitter route is okay, but watch out for signal level changes as
the impeedance drops when the second device is connected. The
berringer and macki mixers have a reasonable signal to noise ratio,
and you may find having hardware controls for volume, ballance, bass
treble and some mid band attenuation usefull for handling tapes of
differing output levels.
Doubtless there are even cheaper solutions, and you need to ask
arround a little.
Good luck,
Joe
