Anyone else tried this?

I suggest you try to get a hold of the Hemi-Sync Mind Food CD. It has quite a few delta audio files and guided lucid dreaming.

Wrong. Delta is the deepest stage of sleep. No dreams here, but you might have impressions of feelings and thoughts. But no vivid dreams. Recheck your source? (Though, if they say Delta is dreaming, I wouldn't trust that their tracks are authentic)

REM dreams (the kind we know and love) occur in the lightest sleep stage. In fact, its brainwaves mimic wakefulness (beta waves) almost exactly. Although binaural tracks can create beta waves, that is more likely to induce wakefulness than dreams.

I'd think maybe if the track started at beta, went down to delta, then to alpha in a 50 minute cycle during a WBTB, and then shut off, you'd have the best luck. It'd mimic late night sleep cycling, stopping just before natural REM. Good luck finding a track with that much thought put into it.
