The Dreamscape - John Petrucci's Signature Pedal from TC Electronic
Great Minds Rock Alike
John's was one of the first rock stars to join our TonePrint program and his sounds proved so popular we decided to cooperate intensely and capture his interpretations of classic TC effects. We joined forces and the result is what happens when you set John free on the effects that inspire him.
- Six Signature Tones Designed by John Petrucci
- Chorus, flanger and vibrato in one pedal
- Custom voicing switch perfectly tuned to John's custom 'dark' chorus sounds
Straight From the Gospel of John
Since they are such an integrated part of his "voice", John knows our products like the back of his hand - so he knew exactly what he wanted, yielding some of the best sounding modulation effects out there.
Modulation Mastery. Multiplied to Infinity
Dreamscape houses Chorus, Flanger and Vibrato effects that will keep you challenged, inspired and coming round for riff-inspiring possibilities.
Access to Greatness
Whether John is your main inspiration or you kinda dig his sounds, we've added a voicing switch that features a 'dark' setting - a mode that perfectly represents John's signature dark voicing that sounds great wether you wanna sound like the man himself or carve your own path.

Total Guitar by Jonathan Horsley
Like all great signature gear, TheDreamscape makes Petrucci's tones accessible to all but, crucially, there's still plenty of room to experiment with what is an incredibly versatile and musical pedal.
Guitarist by Trevor Curwen
Okay, it's nominally a John Petrucci signature pedal and guitarists who are fans of this particular brand of modern prog rock are going to love it because of that. However, from a more universal perspective what we have here is a versatile pedal that has a much wider appeal. Chorus, flanging and vibrato are effect that can be of use in many styles of music but are unlikely to be effects that you'd want to use at the same time, so a pedal that can provide quality versions of all three is an asset.

The Dreamscape pedal is certainly for fans of Dream Theater and John Petrucci, but it is also a great multi effects stompbox offering chorusing, flanging and vibrato sounds as well as new customized sounds. Definitely check this out!
iGuitar by Jamie Humphries
Versatile, built like a brick, filled with great sounds and always updatable - it certainly lives up to the excitement it's been generating since it was announced!

No matter how we dialed in the sounds, a listener never would have guessed that this pedal wasn’t analog. We’ve played many digital effect pedals that sounded, well, digital, but as modulation pedals go, The Dreamscape stood up great alongside some of our classic analog pedals — even a few pricey boutique models.
Guitar Media by Steve Shaw
This is an awesome pedal with a huge array of sounds, it is a little on the pricey side but its still worth it as its a stunning piece of gear.

The TonePrint selection is interesting. Connect the pedal via a USB cable, and settings can be downloaded to the unit. There’s also a free app that allows settings to be sent wirelessly to the pedal via a smart phone – a nice, modern feature.
Delamar by Jens Geilich
TC Electronic effects are in the State-Of-The-Art category in the guitar world. The Danish company has not gained this reputation by chance, so it is not surprising that the sounds offered in the Dreamscape are within the absolute high-end range as would be expected when you work together with one of the best guitarists currently under the sun.
Bonedo by Michael Behm
TC Electronic's collaboration with John Petrucci has succeeded in a very good sounding pedal. To me, this robust and technically advanced pedal lines up right at the front in the league of high-quality effect devices.
