Chord & FretEb/F — with the ninth in the bass
Also written D#/F — the same chord, spelled the other way.
Notes in Eb/F: F – Eb – G – BbFormula: 1 – 3 – 5 / 9In the formula, the numbers count steps of the major scale starting from the note that names the chord; "b" lowers a half step, "#" raises one — and a slash names the bass note.
The C triad over a D bass. Heard from the bottom up it is a suspended chord — a D with a fourth and a seventh, no third: open, and saying nothing about major or minor.
The same chord on all four instruments
Where to use it: Right before the resolving chord, in gospel, pop and keyboard fills.
