Is a Computer an Instrument?

Dali has an excellent point. Repurposing other items to use in the creation of music doesn't somehow negate the fact that the way instrument is defined is in the product. So, according to the definition, anything that creates something that qualifies as music is an instrument.
So that old joke that your overweight grandpa tells about 'The only instrument I play the radio' hyuck hyuck hyuck is actually... valid.
