Octave

Octave RTA is a powerful real-time audio analysis app. Designed with musicians and recording engineers in mind, it can also be used by anyone interested in the world of sound. Ideal for room tuning or speaker tuning, the app enables portable, precision audio measurement and visualization. Feature Highlights: Full, 1/3 and 1/6 Octave.

  • OCTAVE is a risk assessment methodology to identify, manage and evaluate information security risks. This methodology serves to help an organization to: develop qualitative risk evaluation criteria that describe the organization’s operational risk tolerances. Identify assets that are important to the mission of the organization.
  • GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation.
  • Octave responds differently to the same thing as ans=0. Matlab can execute the file in the directory as it was called from the command line. The new version also supports these means execute in the same way but the old version of octave does not support the same.
  • And Vulnerability Evaluation (OCTAVE) methodology, OCTAVE Allegro. OCTAVE Allegro is a methodology to streamline and optimize the process of assessing information security risks so that an organization can obtain sufficient results with a small investment in time, people, and oth-er limited resources.

What are octaves?

You have probably heard the term octave. But what does it mean?

To say that a note is one octave higher means to say that the note is the same, but it is in a higher section of the instrument.

Imagine a piano. On it, the keys on the left are lower than the keys on the right. If you are pressing the white keys, starting from C, from left to right, the sequence will follow: C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C… continuing in this cycle until the piano keys are finished.

Octave

As the notes get higher, it is easy to see that the next C will be higher than the previous one. Whenever a cycle ends and the note returns to C, an octave is completed.

Note that B is the 7th degree of C (as we saw in the article “What are degrees?“), making C the eighth degree. This is why it is called “octave”.

Octave definition

We use the example of C here, but this is valid for any note, as long as it starts and ends on the same note. If we started from D, we would close an octave when we reached D again. The same logic can be applied to an octave below, where the sound gets lower.

Since Western music has 12 notes (12 semitones), we can conclude that an octave comprises the distance of six whole tones. Check below to see how we return to the original note in 6 tones:

Just for the sake of curiosity, pianos usually have about 7 octaves.
