As there has been an increasing interest in PowerChromatic tuning I asked Seydel if they could add it to the Power Tunings page on their website -
which they have now done! Here's the page:

The default key is G, but Seydel will allow players to order in different keys via their excellent Configurator. If you do decide to order, I suggest going for half-valving, as it gives universal semitone draw bends, slide in or out. This is really the main point of PowerChromatic.
I have many videos up featuring PowerChromatic, such as these two:

Next week I will make a video explaining the tuning using a Seydel half-valved chrom in PowerChromatic.

Here is the tuning denoted in G on the Seydel Power Tunings page:
POWER-CHROMATIC TUNING in G
The start note is A but the home scale of the harmonica is G. My personal favourite positions are Dmaj and Bm, but so many keys are very easy to play. I'll demo them in the video next week.
