X-Tempo Designs is an American DAW (digital audio workstation) technology company founded in 2005 by Trevor Nathanial.

Products

X-Tempo Designs’ flagship DAW product is the pok - “pedal operated keyboard”. The pok is the world’s first completely wireless, patented DAW foot controller. The foot controller acts as a hands-free wireless remote control for Mac and PC-based audio recording software such as Pro Tools, Digital Performer, Logic, Cubase, and Ableton Live. The pok is programmable via the pok Editor software and can be customized to a user’s preferences. The pok utilizes wireless USB technology in conjunction with the DAW command (“shortcut”) keys. For musicians who self-record, from either an isolation booth or from a distance away from their DAW, the pok enables hands-free remote operation for recording sessions. The pok is also used by DJs and stage performers to remotely activate their DAW up to 70 feet from the stage.
