A pedalboard is a flat platform used by musicians, particularly guitarists and bassists, to organize and connect multiple effects pedals. These pedals modify the sound of the instrument, allowing for a wide range of tones and effects. Pedalboards can vary in size and complexity, accommodating anywhere from a few to dozens of pedals. Musicians often use patch cables to link the pedals together, creating a signal chain that enhances their sound. Many pedalboards also include a power supply to ensure that all pedals receive the necessary voltage. This setup helps performers achieve their desired sound during live performances or recording sessions.
