The Behringer BM-17 Frequency Box: A Pedal, or a Synth? [Malaysia/International 2026]

If you’ve been hunting for that elusive, "unhinged" analog sound without the vintage price tag, the wait is almost over.

The Behringer BM-17 Frequency Box is an authentic recreation of a cult-classic 1990s effect that defies traditional categories.

It doesn’t just "process" your signal; it uses your guitar or synth to pilot an internal Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO) for legendary, raw textures.

Coming Soon to Guitarlicious!

We are incredibly excited to announce that the Behringer BM-17 Frequency Box is officially coming soon to our store!

This pedal has been one of the most requested additions to the Behringer BM series, and we can't wait to see how local experimentalists use it.

Whether you are a modular synth wizard or a guitarist looking to inject some "organized chaos" into your board, this is the ultimate tool for sonic exploration.

Why the BM-17 is a Sound Designer’s Dream

Unlike standard fuzz or distortion pedals, the BM-17 generates a completely new sound that tracks your playing dynamics.

The onboard VCO offers multiple waveforms—Triangle, Saw, Square, and Pulse—allowing you to shift from smooth leads to jagged, "laser-like" textures.

Its Envelope Follower is the secret sauce, making the frequency sweeps react to how hard you pick your strings for an incredibly expressive feel.

Comparing the BM Series: Which One Do You Need?

The BM-17 is the wildest member of the family, but it’s part of a legendary lineup of clones:

1. BM-17 Frequency Box

Best for aggressive synth tones and pitch-tracking madness.

2. BM-11M Low Pass Filter

Perfect for that classic creamy "Moog" sweep and funky auto-wah vibes.

3. BM-12 Ring Modulator

The choice for metallic textures and sci-fi soundscapes.
