9to5Mac provide a guide on turning your iPad into a virtual pedalboard.

Apple’s Logic Remote app allows you to control your Logic Pro sessions via iPad. The app has two main functions—controlling the mixer and playing virtual instruments with interfaces available for keyboards, drumpads, and fretboards.

The app also comes with a third feature—a grid of squares similar to a drumpad that can be used as buttons to launch commands. This handy guide demonstrates how to set up a workflow with custom key commands that makes the drumpad-style interface work like a foot pedal for navigating the virtual pedals and amps that come inbuilt with Logic.
