Chromatic just means it can tune all the notes; sharps, flats, naturals. Normally a guitarist/bassist can just get one that's specific to the instrument, but if you're like some and experiment with different tunings and different instruments, it can come in handy.

Hi Hilch

Basically a chromatic tuner shows all the notes in semitone steps. eg C C# D Eb E etc.

Chromatic tuning will be for when you want to step out of the standard tuning and tune your guitar to notes other than EADGBe.

For instance many metal players tune down a semitone and would tune to Eb Ab Db etc. and these would be shown on a chromatic tuner.
