4-Note Rootless (Type A/B)

The Type A voicing of D#maj7 stacks F##, A#, C## and E# from the bottom up: the major 3rd, 5th, major 7th and 9th 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#maj7 is Type B.
