The Wet Dreams is an analog chorus pedal from Deadbeat Sound, a maker of compact effects pedals. Chorus pedals double a guitar's signal, detune and delay the copy slightly, and blend it back with the original to create a thicker, shimmering sound; the Wet Dreams is Deadbeat Sound's take on that effect. RockBoard's PedalPedia describes it as "designed to deliver clean classic chorus sound from crystal highs to simmering lows, adding a lush liquid texture to your sound"1. For a player, that places it among the traditional, warm-sounding analog chorus designs rather than digital multi-effects, and it sits alongside the maker's other modulation pedals such as the Deadbeat Sound Modulation Station. For how this kind of effect works in general, see Chorus Pedals.
Circuit and power
The Wet Dreams runs an analog circuit, the approach most players associate with the classic chorus voicings of the past few decades. It is powered from a 9V DC supply with a center negative plug, the standard for effects pedals, and draws 20 mA of current1. That draw is modest, so it fits comfortably on a pedalboard sharing a standard isolated supply with other pedals.
What it does to your sound
Deadbeat Sound's own description frames the pedal as a clean, traditional chorus across the full frequency range: "Designed to deliver clean classic chorus sound from crystal highs to simmering lows, adding a lush liquid texture to your sound"1. In practice, a chorus of this type is used to fatten clean rhythm tones, add width to arpeggios, and give leads a shimmering edge, which is the role the maker's description points toward.
