E Chromatic Scale (All notes)

The E Chromatic Scale does not have a Major or minor quality because all the notes are an equidistant one semitone apart. As a result there are no distinct intervalic differences, regardless of key, and so the E Chromatic Scale is considered atonal or, lacking a tonal center. The E Chromatic Scale contains all twelve available notes within an octave, E, E, F, G, G, A, A, B, B, C, D, D.
