  • F — unison and the main tonal anchor.

Together, these notes form the harmonic foundation of the Fsus4 chord, defining its sound and role in the musical context.

Using the Fsus4 Chord

Separate the 4 and 3 into different registers to avoid conflict. For natural movement, use a sus4 -> triad cadence. Fits well for soft tension before resolution. Sounds great with the 4 in the top voice.
