pedal board

Organist's foot keyboard

A pedal board is a flat platform holding multiple guitar effects pedals, organized for convenient foot access during performance.

Musicians arrange their pedals—distortion, delay, reverb, and others—on the board and connect them with patch cables: His pedal board takes up half the stage.

Also spelled pedalboard.

In organ playing, the pedal board is the keyboard played with the feet.
