have a AGC (automatic gain control) so the first bits would blast the tape before it turns down the gain.  Playing with the gain might or might not do much. In some cases 
the cheap recorders might work better. 

 
Next we will be repairing those old machines to load our dinosaur synths...

Hi, After some cassette backup discussions, a silly idea came up. 

 
Old synths often had tape dump as a means of backing up sounds.  
Nowadays it's easier to use a sampler or computer than a cassette tape, since it's just audio. 
Sooo... turning this on its head: 
 
Were there ever any old sampler that would let you store sample data as a tape dump? (-:
