A# - D - F - G#

The F# would be the major 7th, any "7th" chord is really a minor seventh which is why its a semitone lower...

A#7 is the major chord with the 7th added.
A#m7 is the minor chord with the 7th added
A#Maj7th would be the major 7th on the major chord
A#mmaj7th is the minor chord with the major 7th.

but all can be written in other ways...

Isn't A# - D - F - G major?
A# - D - F# would be augmented afaik. (My music theory knowledge sucks a bit)

There is no A#7 if you are sticking to the tones of the Bmajor scale. A# is the 7th degree of the scale from which is built a diminished chord (A# C# E).

To clarify this is where the confusion is coming from, F# is in the Bmajor scale but not the A#7 chord (which has an F).
