Jun 15, 2020 at 15:27 comment added Ian Goldby @SovereignSun As piiperi wrote, you should ask whether it functions as a chord, not whether it is a chord. The latter just becomes a question about definitions, which isn't useful in itself.
Jun 15, 2020 at 14:34 comment added Almeo Maus @SovereignSun Haha, you are reaching the edge case! For example, do you know the sampler? It is an electronic device or software that can make all the notes out of any sound, just by shifting its pitch. Then what about you sample the sound of a [C E G] chord playing on, say, a piano? Then if you play a note using this sample, is it a note or a chord? Both!!

Jun 15, 2020 at 4:14 comment added SovereignSun What if you take sound synthesised sound that dropped out of normal notation and has polyphony, won't one key make a chord then?
Jun 15, 2020 at 4:07 comment added SovereignSun I can, but you didn't give the straight answer, which I would appreciate if you did.

Jun 14, 2020 at 19:04 comment added SovereignSun So is it or is it not a chord?
