What is DSCC?

The Decent Sampler Community Collection (DSCC) is a growing database of Decent Sampler libraries curated from various platforms. This collection serves as a resource where users can easily find libraries, explore sound demos, and access download links.

Each library in the collection is assigned a DSCC-ID, which will be listed under the corresponding videos on Instagram and YouTube in the future. This unique ID makes it easy to find specific libraries quickly.

How to Use the DSCC Search

By default, all filters are enabled. To search for a specific category, deactivate the other unnecessary filters.

The DSCC search allows you to look up libraries using different filters:

• DSCC ID - Enter a library's unique ID to find it instantly.
  To search for a DSCC ID, deactivate all filters except DSCC ID and enter only the number in the search bar can help to find a specific library by the ID.
• Library Name - Search by the name of a specific library.
• Creator - Find libraries by the person or group who created them.
• Tags/Hashtags - Search using instrument names, instrument groups, or other relevant categories.
  For many libraries, hashtags are currently missing. These will be added in the future.

Example tags: Piano, Synth, Synthesizer

Card Layout

After extensive testing and some feedback, we decided on a card layout because it is the most user friendly and visually appealing option.

1. Screenshot of the Decent Sampler Library - A preview image of the library.
2. DSCC ID - A unique identifier for the Decent Sampler Community Collection, displayed subtly in the bottom-left corner of the library’s screenshot.
3. Name of the Decent Sampler Library
4. Creator name - The person, company or group who created and shared this library.
5. Hashtags for the library - Tags that help categorize and improve searchability also give users additional information.
6. Details button - Click to view more information about the library, including download options and links to sound examples.
   (Clicking the card also take you to the details page.)

Library Details Page

Clicking "More Info" takes you to a detailed view of the selected library, where you can find:

• Library Image (if available)
• DSCC ID
• Creator Name + social links
• More Information
• Library Price or Availability (at the time of listing)
