threeoctave

Threeoctave is a term that appears in music and audio contexts to refer to something spanning three octaves, or as a stylized name for a product or project. The octave is the interval between two pitches with the same letter name across a doubling of frequency; thus a three-octave range covers 36 semitones. In vocal and instrumental planning, three-octave ranges describe the usable tessitura of a voice or instrument, the portion of the range over which it can perform with consistent timbre and power. In performance notes or repertoire descriptions, designers may specify three-octave sections to indicate the extent of a part or keyboard, or the coverage of a media’s frequency response. In audio engineering and signal processing, three-octave concepts may appear in discussions of bandwidth and equalization, where octaves are used to denote bands of roughly equal perceptual width. As a proper noun, Threeoctave may appear as a brand, project, or product name, but there is no single widely recognized entity by that exact name. The term is typically written either as threeoctave or as Threeoctave, depending on branding or stylistic choices.
