    Production What about beatmakers that dont know basic music theory

    I know theory, but I can't play for shit outside of C Major... so I transpose everything(in logic) so that I can play any scale in C Major. Also, I bought an ipad a few weeks back, I play out chord progressions via the touch screen, and import to logic. Fun way to get a start on a beat.
