Unreferenced date December 2009 Listen filename octaver.ogg title C Major scale with octave down effect Octave effect boxes are a type of special effects unit which mix the input signal with a synthesised signal whose musical tone is an octave lower or higher than the original. The synthesised octave signal is derived from the original input signal by halving octave down or doubling octave up the frequency. This is possible due to the simple two to one relationship between the frequencies of musical notes which are separated by an octave. One of the first popular musicians to employ the octave effect was Jimi Hendrix , who also used a variety of other effects in his recordings and public performances. Octave up effects usually use full wave Rectifier rectification using diode s to fold up the negative part of the waveform to make a new waveform an octave higher in pitch. Octave down effects are typically produced by converting the signal to a square wave , and then using Flip flop electronics flip flop circuits to divide the frequency by two. This creates a buzzy synthesizer like tone. The MXR Blue Box used this method to create a Two Octave drop expanded to include One Octave down in later re issues . CKY band CKY is widely recognized for using octave down effects as part of their signature guitar tone. The Boss OC 2 unit generates tones at one and two octaves down from the input signal. This effect also uses flip flops to generate square waves at 1 2 and 1 4 of the input signal frequency, but rather than simply mixing in these signals, it uses them to invert the polarity of the input signal on every other cycle every two out of four cycles for the second octave .

The whole frequency range is divided into set of frequencies called bands. Each band covers a specific range of frequencies. For this reason, a scale of octave bands and one third octave bands has been developed. A frequency is said to be an octave in width when the upper band frequency is twice the lower band frequency.

Other uses Octave disambiguation Unreferenced date December 2009 An octave is a verse form consisting of eight lines of iambic pentameter in English or of hendecasyllable s in Italian . The most common rhyme scheme for an octave is abba abba . An octave is the first part of a Petrarchan sonnet , which ends with a contrasting sestet . In traditional Italian sonnets the octave always ends with a conclusion of one idea, giving way to another idea in the sestet. Some English sonnets break that rule, often to striking effect. In Milton s Sonnet 19, the sestet begins early, halfway through the last line of the octave When I consider how my light is spent Ere half my days in this dark world and wide, And that one talent which is death to hide Lodg d with me useless, though my soul more bent To serve therewith my Maker, and present My true account, lest he returning chide, Doth God exact day labour, light denied? I fondly ask. But Patience, to prevent That murmur, soon replies God doth not need Either man s work or his own gifts who best Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state Is kingly thousands at his bidding speed And post o er land and ocean without rest They also serve who only stand and wait. Patience s too quick reply intrudes upon the integrity of the octave. Since prevent also means anticipate, it is as if Patience is giving the answer before the question is finished.

C7 is also the highest note on most other keyboard instruments. The seventh octave is the range of notes between C7 and C8. Only a small percentage of coloratura soprano s are capable of singing in this octave. While notes in the sixth octave, between soprano high C and C7, can have enough color to sound flutey or canary like which give the whistle register , also called flageolet register, its name , the squeaky, whistly tones in the seventh octave help give the whistle register its name.

for other uses of the word octaveOctave disambiguation The Sicilian octave Italian language Italian ottava siciliana or ottava napoletana , lit. Naples Neapolitan octave is a verse form consisting of eight lines of eleven syllables each, called a hendecasyllable . The form is common in late Middle Ages medieval Italy Italian poetry . In English poetry , iambic pentameter is often used instead of syllabics. The form has a prescribed rhyme scheme of four rhymed Couplet couplets A B A B A B A B . Although only the final two rhymes are different from the much more common ottava rima , the two eight line forms evolved completely separately. According to the Princeton Encyclopedia of Poetry and Poetics , scholars disagree on the origin of the Sicilian octave, but all agree that it is related to the development of the first eight lines of the sonnet called the octave . It is not clear whether the octave emerged first and influenced the sonnet or vice versa. The form is a variant of the strambotto , which is one of the earliest verse forms in the Italian language. The strambotto was used in Sicily and Tuscany , and consisted of either six or eight hendecasyllables. The rhyme scheme varied, but the Tuscan was form generally did not use the Sicilian octave scheme the most common was A B A B C C D D. The Sicilian octave is rare in Italian after the Renaissance and has seldom been used in English except as an illustration of the form. Before the 15th century, however, it was used often by poets in southern Italy, and was an important influence for Petrarch in his sonnets. Giovanni Boccaccio Boccaccio , who popularized and may have invented the unrelated ottava rima, used the Sicilian octave a total of once, in his early Romance genre romance Filocolo.
