I occasionally use a CD player, cassette deck, and TASCAM Porta-One 
to feed a pair of Eventide Harmonizers. The Porta-One is a 4-track 
cassette deck/mixer that plays and records normal cassettes at normal 
speed (higher-end portastudios are usually double speed). This 
feature allows me to play a regular cassette, and if it happens to 
have material recorded on both sides then I can have two forward 
tracks and two backwards tracks.

I sometimes use loop cassettes as well. Cheap and effective.
