A contrivance or apparatus for producing musical sounds: a stringed instrument.


Here is the definition posted on the first entry. Read it.... Producing musical sound... A computer does not produce musical sound. It may produce music/noise via speakers but it is programmed to produce these sounds. Everything is coded and programmed on a computer for eventual output of some sort.... It is not an instrument....
a computer does make a musical sound because ALL SOUNDS can be classified as musical sounds. please don't be an idiot.





this is part of the earliest form of computer music



anything with a computer chip that processes ANY amount of data is technically a computer
