by an eighth of a tone
dB = decibel; it is talking about sound (or music). If it is music I believe it can simply be "octave" as said before.
"by an eighth of a tone" is a descriptive term.
"by an eighth of a tone" is a descriptive term.

: "per octave" is correct in the context of power amplifiers, too ("eighth of a tone" is meaningless in audio engineering)
