'''Equave''' (/ˈiːkwɪv/ ''EE-kwiv'' or /ˈiːkwəv/ ''EE-kwəv'') is a suggested shorter term for '''interval of equivalence''' or '''equivalency interval''', the interval such that pitches separated by it are considered equivalent. In octave-equivalent scales, the equave is the [[octave]]. In [[Bohlen-Pierce]], the equave is [[3/1]]. In [[EDF|edf]]s, the equave is [[3/2]].
In a [[periodic scale]], the '''equave''' (/ˈiːkwɪv/ ''EE-kwiv'' or /ˈiːkwəv/ ''EE-kwəv''), also called '''interval of equivalence''' or '''equivalency interval''', is the interval such that pitches separated by it are considered [[equivalence|equivalent]]. The term ''equave'' was coined by [[User:Inthar|Inthar]].

In a periodic scale, the equave (/ˈiːkwɪv/ EE-kwiv or /ˈiːkwəv/ EE-kwəv), also called interval of equivalence or equivalency interval, is the interval such that pitches separated by it are considered equivalent. The term equave was coined by Inthar.
