The '''equave limit'''{{idiosyncratic}} generalizes the concept of [[odd limit]], extending for any [[equave]] what the odd-limit represents specifically for the equave 2/1.

The parameter <math>n</math> places an upper bound on the values of the integers <math>u</math> and <math>v</math>, meaning that both <math>u</math> and <math>v</math> are less than or equal to <math>n</math>.
