I just fall for this new model in the range Pedaltrain.
This model is "radically" different from other models and its advantages are its flaws (not that good French, but briefly).
Basically, the advantages are:
- A flat surface (no inclination, as on other models, which in my opinion, there was no point because the angle was too low) and less high than the other models
- A very shallow depth, which allows for a row of pedals (which is handy for dyslexics foot like me)
- A little "sign" on the front of the pedalboard (facing the audience so) can "protect" the pedals and power jacks kicking nuisance to the public (because everyone knows that the public likes kicking of rooks in the gear of musicians):-D

The disadvantages are directly related to these benefits:
- No room under the pedalboard to place a power supply, however small it (the little pads that underlie the structure are just high enough to allow a jack ...)
- A small storage space: the width is 51 centimeters, which allows you to place 5 Boss pedals type, or possibly six, with flat jacks placed pedals and shift to the jack sockets are not the same height. Personally, I place a TimeFactor Eventide, a Maxon, a Boss, Jacques and a Guyatone. I also place a power Fuel Tank Junior, placed vertically against the bottom panel, power cables placed up (I know it's not terrible terrible, but good). In short, if you have not understood this pedalboard is designed for musicians with little stuff.

The PB comes with velcro strips, efficient enough, and a cover, very solid and interesting than the other models, to the extent that:
- The strap can carry all on the back (more convenient than the model that messes up Junior's shoulder still good when you have a long way to walk)
- The bag is better adjusted to the PB, it is better calibrated and less fleet, but when I get to be the same store a few meters of cable, a small expression pedal and a Digitech FS3X (still, not bad , not mine)
- There is always an outside pocket which can put extra stuff (FYI, I set my preamp that should be something like 20cm * 15cm, and there is still room for small accessories).

Overall, everything tidy and rigged, the whole gives an impression of safety and soundness than other versions, including the Junior version that I have also, and more and is much more transportable. Inevitably, it is not suitable for pedalboard sickly Forum Pedalboard and Rack ( https://forums.audiofanzine.com/index%2Cidtopic%2C54059%2Cidpost%2C%2Chighlight%2Cgrozeil.html ) who must lug around 80 pounds of gear for each trip ... ;-)
I can understand that some may find it expensive, but personally it's a luxury that I do not deny my stuff.
