I've been looking for a while for a portable pedal board that is built more for keyboard players. Most of the guitar pedal board sit up too high to be comfortable with a sustain pedal or multiple sustain pedals. I'm looking for ideas for something flatter that can either be built or already exists out there. I'm tired of chasing pedals across the floor at gigs and having to set all of them up.
Can you post what you are using, maybe some photos?
Thanks!

Re: Pedal board
Here's what I've been using for 5+ years. I built it myself and have two different versions of it.

Re: Pedal board
My try:
Nord Triple Pedal with an Yamaha FC5 on top (to toggle Rotary speed slow/fast) and a Roland EV-5 (as a control pedal)
Triple Pedal is attached on a piece of transparent plexiglas with velcro. FC-5 also attached with velcro onto the Triple Pedal.
Rubber knobs under the plexiglas to prevent sliding at gigs.

Re: Pedal board
Made this myself as I could'nt find anything suitable for keyboard players. Ordered a cut to size sheet of Plexiglass
online and used Velcro to attach the pedals.
I use a Quiklok two tier X stand so have designed it to fit between the feet in a standing position.
Have been using this for over a year and it's much easier than having to find and connect loose pedals. I have six pedals
on it now (two keyboards) although a couple of them don't stick very well due to the moulded rubber feet.I may need to fit wider Velcro.
Not easy finding a case for it though. Nearest is the Gator G-Mix 2020.
