Micro Dream Delay
Compact Lo-Fi Echo Inspired by the Echo Dream
The Micro Dream Delay is a compact lo-fi delay pedal that captures the gooey, warped character of the Echo Dream family and condenses it into a pedalboard-friendly format. Built by Death By Audio, the Micro Dream delivers vivid slapback echoes, psychedelic repeats, and up to one full second of kaleidoscopic delay.
Despite its small footprint, it produces richly textured delay tones—from tight double-tracking style repeats to hazy, experimental echoes that drift into surreal sonic territory.
Short Delays for Slapback & Thickening
At shorter delay settings, the Micro Dream produces tight, bouncy repeats ideal for slapback tones and subtle doubling effects. These settings are perfect for thickening single-note runs, riffs, and rhythmic playing while maintaining clarity in the mix.
Used this way, the Micro Dream can easily function as an always-on ambience enhancer that adds dimension without overwhelming your core tone.
Extended Delay for Psychedelic Textures
Turn up the TIME control and the pedal moves into deeper sonic territory. As delay times increase, the repeats become grainier and more atmospheric. Pushing the delay chip beyond its typical range introduces stretched, smeared, pseudo-looping echoes that create warped, psychedelic textures.
These longer settings deliver the signature lo-fi personality that makes the Micro Dream such a distinctive delay effect.
Flexible Feedback Control
The F BACK control adjusts the number of repeats across a wide range:
An internal F BACK trim pot allows you to set exactly where self-oscillation begins on the knob’s range, making it easy to fine-tune the pedal’s response to your playing style.
Powerful Delay Level Control
The DELAY knob controls the level of the repeats and provides enough output for the delayed signal to sit above the dry signal if desired. This allows for thick, pronounced echoes that cut clearly through busy mixes.
