• and
• a connection interface receiving, from the another device, a data or a data request destination and an instruction for receiving and storing data used for reproduction of sounds or images,
• wherein the data is stored to the work memory or the timbre data memory based on information indicating a storage location of the data in the electronic device included in the instruction, and
• the data or the data request destination and the instruction for receiving and storing data from the another device received by the connection interface are based on an instruction transmitted from the terminal to the another device.

A server communication method executed by a server connected to a terminal and an electronic device, the server communication method comprising:

• receiving an instruction from the terminal to the electronic device to instruct the electronic device to receive and store data stored in the server;
• creating a data or a data request destination for a target data of the received instruction;
• and
• transmitting, to the electronic device, the data or the data request destination and an instruction for receiving and storing the target data of the received instruction.
