JunXion is a Mac OSX data routing application that allows the connection of any USB game controller and defines, in an easy user interface, the translation of each key or joystick action into a specific MIDI event. The resulting MIDI data is then available to any audio/music software that runs on that Mac or can be send to external MIDI interfaces.

junXion v1.0 features:
- scaling and polarity selection of the incoming data
- straight mapping from the incoming data into one of the available MIDI events
- mapping of the data of one input to the output of another input
(i.e. trigger note with a key and control the pitch with one of the joystick axis)
- remapping of the computer keyboard and mouse to MIDI data
- MIDI output port selection
(i.e. select the internal MIDI bus, the internal QuickTime GM synth or external MIDI port)
- the possibility to simultaneously connect up to 8 USB input devices (joysticks, game pads etc) and route them to separate or common MIDI channels/ports
(i.e. one can for instance 'play' Ableton Live with two joysticks and the computer keyboard)
- external MIDI input data can be merged with junXion's MIDI data
- save/recall user defined configurations

In the coming months STEIM will add more functions to junXion:
- editable table based response curves for the translation of gestures into MIDI controller data
- the development of an extended set of data conditioners and conditional data routing
(i.e. passing a threshold by moving a joystick will first trigger a note and than send its further movement data as MIDI controller data)
- the addition of other input methods
(i.e. audio as control input, virtual control surfaces on screen with external control)
- modules for timed MIDI data streams triggered and 'steered' by external input devices
