soundboard
Instrument's vibrating panel
A soundboard is a thin wooden panel in a piano, guitar, or violin that amplifies string vibrations into audible sound.
The term extends to a person who listens as you think through ideas: I need a soundboard for this presentation.
In audio production, a soundboard is a mixing console.
Online, it's a collection of audio clips—often quotes or sound effects—triggered by clicking buttons.
