Perhaps if you take a slightly different perspective. I'm gonna use 12 tone to describe it, since I don't know any music theory. do-mi-sol is 1-5-8. to transpose it, you add one 2-6-9. And so forth. That is why you are not discriminating much between white keys and black keys in your memory. Instead, you memorize simple patterns. Only six patterns to memorize all of the major and minor scales--not counting one additional memory factoid to distinguish how major and minor differ (+6) Does that make sense?
