Chord & FretD#7sus4 — dominant seventh suspended fourth
Also written Eb7sus4 — the same chord, spelled the other way.
Notes in D#7sus4: D# – G# – A# – C#Formula: 1 – 4 – 5 – b7In 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 dominant with the fourth in place of the third. The seventh keeps the tension, but without the third the pull toward resolution loosens — the chord can afford to wait.
The same chord on all four instruments
Where to use it: Right before the plain dominant (C7sus4 → C7C7C7C7), in gospel, soul, MPB and rock.
