So I've been doing a little digging around to figure out what makes the Junxion different from the Stompbox, if at all.
It doesn't seem to be the software. Check out the scoop from the user manual (nice screenshots), in particular pages 39 and 40: http://www.junxion.com/pdf/Junxion%20Box%20JB-110b%20User%20Guide.pdf <quote> The following Open Source Software is included with the Junxion Box: __GPL and LGPL Software.__ The Junxion Box is provided with the following software licensed under the GPL and LGPL.

What added value is the Junxion providing (besides a nifty box cut-out and a nice paint job). I love both units--just looking to quantify the differences.
