>wierd. what is the value of *rts*

Hmm, you may say I'm going even weirder but
*rts* doesn't seem to exist:

=============================================================
CM> *rts*
The variable *RTS* is unbound.
   [Condition of type UNBOUND-VARIABLE]

Restarts:
  0: [ABORT] Abort handling SLIME request.
  1: [TERMINATE-THREAD] Terminate this thread (3064531872)

Backtrace:
  0: (SB-INT:EVAL-IN-LEXENV *RTS* #<NULL-LEXENV>)
=============================================================

I don't know how (and how much) I messed up the system
all I did, after listenin' to interesting piano phase stuff,
was try to output some midi note and now whenever I try
to play something using events, I get that 
"Can't schedule events in non-real time while RTS is running."
error.

I'd be more than happy if I can solve it without exiting
Emacs and Common Music and restarting them. I'm still
searching for ways but couldn't get a result until now.
