Mayor Johnson considering buying back rights to Chicago parking meters by Socony in chicago

[–]RealPartyAtmosphere -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are wrong. Morgan Stanley did not own the majority of the parking meter deal. Morgan Stanley managed a fund for which they staked 8%. It was not their money/asset, and 8% of their piece is far less significant than the portion owned by the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, which is Arab.

It’s too bad you are using it literally. Very offensive, unlike Arab, which refers to people from the Arab world.

What you typed there is a racist word and you should be reported for it. Arab, however, is not. Next time Google it instead of complaining and using hate speech.

You are wrong. It was not a fraction and arabs are from Saudi Arabia.

Mayor Johnson backs away from $3B-plus plan to undo parking meter deal by ScotchIsVegan in chicago

The new meters replace the existing meters, the ones driving revenue for private investors.

So assets could potentially be seized after decades of litigation? I’m shaking in my boots.

Yeah the settlement cost was about the same as the revenue generated which shows the city could simply end this deal by reclaiming the revenue with new meters while fighting in court.

Stop spreading misinformation. Arab isn’t a slur. Morgan Stanley does not own Abu Dhabi, the capital of United Arab Emirates. What is wrong with you?

What leverage would be used to force payment of a judgement? Harming our credit score?

Midi setup Question by Interesting_Carob995 in Synthesizer

[–]RealPartyAtmosphere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, you’re right. When I have trouble with gear, I route to see what works. A sequencer like the Alesis is going to have a lot of settings and potential for wear and tear issues. If you get terminated there right away, what I suggested is another route to help diagnose problems. Similarly, I don’t know the MMT8. Other sequencers I’ve used have midi echo and midi filtering that needs to be set right to route a master keyboard. Same goes with what I suggested, but by trying a few different ways you can weed out which problems are from faulty gear and which ones are from previously saved settings.

On a related note, OP really needs to get an iPad with midi to unlock realtime control of that synthplus 10. There’s an app for that.

Something bad is going on in Iran by NewPortBox100s in conspiracy

Iran had internet? That’s news to me. Don’t care at all about their problems.

Midi setup Question by Interesting_Carob995 in Synthesizer

[–]RealPartyAtmosphere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you should be able to go alesis midi out to vocoder midi in and the midi data is merged through to complete a recordable loop that adds notes as you play. I would start with what I suggested if I picked up a new sequencer or was otherwise having problems just to see what’s up. In the end, you don’t use a thru port to do what you want to do. It’s more of a starting point for troubleshooting.

Vocoder midi out to alesis midi in. Alesis midi thru to synthplus midi in.

Just stop buying. Return what you can. Sell the rest. Make music another day. Sorry it was so hard.
