I never knew you could plug in the cd player instead of the tape. That would be too easy. Duh!
Thanks. I'll give it a try when my Korg gets here (hopefully by the weekend).

I have the CD-Solution for my Polysix, Poly-800 and AX-73. Since i newer
know where my tapes are if i need them, i´ll decided to burn my tape
dumps on CD and use a ultra-old Player for playback. The same goes for
my C64; there are casette-games and progs which you can download from
the internet. Now use cas2wav to convert those games into wav-files,
burn them on CD, connect the CD-Player to the casette-input of the C64
and that´s all! With the Turbo-Tape-Loader you can reach upto 13.000
Blocks on one CD, which is <>3 Megabytes. Not much, but you have to
consider that a C64-one-side-Disk holds only 170 Kilobytes, and that
only 64KB fit´s into a C64, it IS much ;-)
