Can a $55 digital effects pedal really transform a classic mono synth? In this video, I put the New Bee SK17 to the test with my Roland SH-101 to see if this tiny, inexpensive multi-effects unit punches above its weight.
You’ll hear real sound demos of the amp models, modulation effects (chorus, phaser, flanger, vibrato), delays, reverbs (including shimmer and cloud), cabinet sims, and more — plus a look at its Bluetooth app editor, USB audio interface capability, and built-in tuner. If you own a mono synth with no onboard effects, this might be the budget upgrade you didn’t know you needed.
Is it studio-worthy? Or a live-performance secret weapon? Watch and decide.
