Default Need another Mac PCI slot!

I'm using Mix Plus with a SCSI card in a 3 slot G4 and obviously have no slots left! What is the best (and cheapest) way of providing a 4th slot if I wanted to buy a new Mix Farm card for extra DSP. Do I need to buy some sort of outbord device and how do these work???
Thanks a lot for your help

Alternatively, you could get a used Quicksilver Mac w/ 4 slots and you'd have just enough slots, plus some extra RTAS power if you needed it.
