4-Note Rootless (Type A/B)

The Type B voicing of D#7alt stacks C#, F#, F## and A## from the bottom up: the minor 7th, sharp 9th, major 3rd and sharp 5th of the chord. It leaves out the root, D#, for the left hand or the bass player to take.

It's one of the 4-Note Rootless (Type A/B) voicings: four-note rootless voicings in their two forms, with the 3rd or the 7th on the bottom, played over the root. The other for D#7alt is Type A.
