    Boss-8 capabilities

    Can anyone tell me what the capabilities are with the Boss 8 controller. What are the limitations, can it do 3 axis surfacing etc. I am looking at a machine for a possible retrofit, but if I can get by with the boss 8 controller for a little while it would be helpful. Thanks
