Keys/scales(basicly want to know if i'm correct)

[DMBFan63]

Fatjack, I have a question, what about for the key of A?

Amaj: A B C# D E F# G# A

How would i put a Db instead of C#? there is a D in there already.. and same for G#-Ab, there is an A already.. i don't understand it

ahh, shit i get it now.. they're only flats when that Root note is already in the key.. i get it i guess

i dont understand what you are asking, the way you wrote out A is fine there, A is a key that you use sharps with

you never have sharps AND flats in a key, its either one or the other

I know this now.. i confused myself before and then shane straightened my back out.. thanks for the help..i'll work on knowing when to use flats and when to use sharps
