About Emaj9/D#

Emaj9/D# is E Maj 9 with D# as the lowest note. This is the 3rd inversion of the chord — the same notes as E Maj 9 (E, G#, B, D#, F#), but voiced so that D# sits in the bass. Slash chords create a smoother bass line movement and are common in chord progressions where the bass walks stepwise.
