Chromatic Harmonicas enable the player to perform music in all keys on one instrument. Actually, they consist of two diatonic harmonicas in one, tuned a semitone apart - for example in C and C#. The slide button is pushed in to switch the airflow from one to the other, thus raising the pitch of each note by a semitone. By combining these two scales, all 12 notes of the chromatic scale are available (some of them twice), which opens up a wealth of new musical options to the player. Chromatic harmonicas can easily be distinguished from other harmonica models by the slide button on the right-hand side. They are most commonly heard in classical music and jazz but are also often used in blues, folk music, and pop. All chromatic harmonicas feature tempered tuning.
