Behringer has launched a re-creation of the Moogerfooger MF-103 phaser pedal from the 1990s that has “its creator’s mark deeply imprinted into it”, according to the brand.

The new BM-13 Phaser also harks back to the Moog rackmounted MKPH phaser unit from the 1970s that came before the Moogerfooger series. The budget-friendly gear company pays tribute to this original model in a new promotional video, though the Moog logo has been removed, and there is no official mention of the Moog name.

The BM-13 is an analogue unit that has the same 12-stage design as its inspiration, and it works just as well with synthesisers as it does guitars, but you could essentially run a multitude of instruments through it.

As for its main features, at the top of the pedal sits knobs for drive and output – to control your incoming signal and the final output stage – with a Phaser control section beneath. In this part, you’ll find dials for sweep, resonance, and a switch for either six or 12 stages of filtering.

The last section of the pedal’s face gives you control over the LFO with a range switch, a rate knob, and an amount knob which you can even set to stun or kill. You can hear it in action in the demo video below:

Each section of the pedal can either be sent out or controlled via an external source. As well as a main audio out, there’s also an aux out which delivers the signal in phase. This means you can transform any mono signal into a stereo signal, and you can also split the signal through two different speakers.

The BM-13 is available to pre-order now for £99/$129. You can find out more or locate a dealer via the Behringer website.
