pedalboard

Effects pedals, organized

A pedalboard is a flat board or case that holds multiple guitar effects pedals, organized for convenient access during performance.

Musicians arrange their pedals in sequence and power them from a single source: He spent hours configuring his pedalboard before the tour.

On pipe organs and some keyboards, a pedalboard is the set of pedals played with the feet.
