It is like magic! :) Composing note by note is the only way, because a musician wants to play within a scale, but also to borrow notes from another scale. During composing it's not that simple, that you just could edit a keyboard, to provide only the desired notes, since it could be, that you need to borrow additional notes, but you don't know this in the first place. I'm not a keyboarder, with similar keyboard playing abilities as Dave. I'm the keyboarder who has one hand ;). I'm a guitarist, but I'm using a keyboard much when using the computer to compose. I already own and tested tools, that allow to define a scale with borrowed notes. For a real musician such tools are nothing, but crap.
