The '''chroma''' (precisely the '''moschroma''') of a [[mos scale]] is the interval that is the difference between the large step and the small step in the scale. In particular, the chroma in the [[diatonic]] scale is the [[chromatic semitone]], or augmented unison, such as the interval of C–C♯. | The '''chroma''' (precisely the '''moschroma''') of a [[mos scale]] is the interval that is the difference between the large step and the small step in the scale.
