Keyboard Pedal Boards - My 2 Options

My 2 preferred pedal board options:

  1. Perforated Panel (spray painted to black matte), XL Tie Raps, 2-sided carpet tape (2" wide) & BBQ Rubber Mat (cut to 8"x10" pieces) 
  2. Velcro (2" wide) , 8"x10" Plexiglass Panel, 2-sided carpet tape (2" wide) & BBQ Rubber Mat (cut to 8"x10" pieces)

Option 1: Perforated Board & Tie-Raps 

Perforated panel (from Home Depot), coloured to black with matte spray paint, pedals held down by XL Tie-Raps:


 

Option 2: Plexiglass, velcro and rubber padding

2 examples of pedal boards using the same approach: pedals are velcro'd to a plexiglass board. The plexiglass also has a rubberized base (from BBQ mat cut to size):

Music Playing Apps

Here's some of the music playing apps that I use, in alphabetic order.   Apple Logic Pro URL: https://www.apple.com/logic-pro   I use Logic Pro as my DAW for recording, mixing, looping and mastering.  Apple Mainstage  URL: https://www.apple.com/mainstage   I use Mainstage as my main software instrument host.  Arturia Plugins & Analog Labs Refer to my Arturia Notes .
