I could say the same thing.. thing is I always start with A, D, E or G so I choose my key at the same time now.
It's kindof strange actually, I hear a song in my head, and it's always in the same four keys.
for no particular reasons i like playing in F#m, Am, and Dm. of course, if i'm doing a remix of a vocal track than i don't really have a choice. but yea.

Actually you do!
check out Gsnap!
Use midi to change the pitch, or if you have an effective granulizer/transposer/multiplicator, you need only select what notes are supposed to be in the track and Gsnap will note snap it for you!

OMG. THANK GOD. I was going to post this like a few days ago, but was scared of the negative feedback... IVE BEEN DYING TO KNOW. I feel like i stay in one key in every song i create. Its getting on my nerves because the sound is very dark and deep. I am happy to see some opinions to help me

Ive been trying to pick a key that i like and i dont know..
My biggest problem is making Pads in the backround that give it the movement... Just really cant put chords together i guess in a nice fashion
