About Us

The DCC Museum is dedicated to keeping the Digital Compact Cassette format alive.

We are restoring and preserving all DCC equipment and we are producing music on original DCC tape.

We also preserve several DCC related items, like documentation, manuals, advertisements and various other materials.

We welcome everybody to contribute and donate what they can make available! Please consider becoming a Patreon of the DCC Museum.

The DCC Museum is open by appointment.
