Behringer’s BM-17 Frequency Box channels the iconic Moogerfooger MF-107 – for just £99Behringer has launched the BM-17 Frequency Box, an analogue VCO-based frequency effects pedal inspired by the iconic Moogerfooger MF-107 FreqBox by Moog.
For players looking beyond the standard distortion pedal, this powerhouse unit offers a standalone VCO you can drive with audio input or let loose on its own.
“With intuitive controls and versatile connectivity, it’s perfect for both synth setups and adventurous guitar rigs,” says the company.

At the core of the pedal is a voltage-controlled oscillator that can be tuned in multiple ways: manually using the Frequency control, via an envelope follower that tracks the amplitude of your playing, or by flipping the Sync switch and using your instrument’s signal to dictate the pitch. These techniques can be combined, giving you crazy sputtering textures that react to every nuance of your performance.
As you might expect, the BM-17 leans heavily into experimentation. Behringer describes it as an invitation to “forget what you think you know about what a pedal should be,” and that ethos is reflected in the sounds on offer. Depending on how it’s set, the pedal can deliver thick fuzz-style distortion, snarling harmonic layers, or full-blown modular-style synth tones.
Around the back, the BM-17 offers extensive I/O for CV and expression pedal control, along with dedicated outputs for the envelope follower and oscillator. This means it can integrate with modular systems or other CV-capable gear, effectively transforming from a pedal into a compact analogue sound module. The unit is also housed in a compact, rugged enclosure designed to withstand life on the road.
“Essentially, this is the voice of a synthesizer captured and crammed into a box like an unwilling genie but instead of granting you wishes it will grant you insane sounds that will make your neighbours think you’re being abducted by aliens,” says Behringer. “Whether you’re a modular wizard, synth freq, or a guitarist craving chaos, the BM-17 opens up new worlds of sonic possibility.”
Priced at £99, the Behringer BM-17 Frequency Box is now available to pre-order. Check out the pedal in action below.
