Abstract: An electronic device and a data usage method are provided. An electronic musical instrument confirms whether respective sound data stored in a timbre memory or a wave memory can be used or cannot be used based on management information acquired from a server. A sound data determined to be usable in the management information is validated so that it can be used for loading or writing. On the other hand, a sound data determined to be unusable in the management information is invalidated so that it cannot be used.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a server, a musical instrument, a server communication method, and a communication method. The server is connected to a terminal and a musical instrument and comprises a processor, wherein the processor is configured to receive an instruction from the terminal, create a timbre data or a data request destination, and transmit the timbre data or the data request destination to the musical instrument.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a server, an electronic device, a server communication method, a device communication method, and a communication system. In loading of a communication system, in the case where an identifier of a timbre data and an instruction for loading the timbre data are transmitted from a mobile terminal to a server, the server acquires the timbre data corresponding to the identifier of the timbre data from a timbre DB, and transmits the timbre data together with the received instruction to a communication device (electronic musical instrument). In the electronic musical instrument, the received timbre data is stored to a work memory in response to the instruction received from the server.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a terminal, a terminal communication method, and a communication system. The terminal is connected to a server and connected to an electronic device via the server and includes a correspondence data information storage means, a data association information receiving means, a comparison means, and a display means. The correspondence data information storage means stores correspondence data information of the electronic device. The data association information receiving means receives, from the server, data association information associated with data used for reproduction of sounds or images in the electronic device. The comparison means compares the data association information with the correspondence data information. The display means displays the data association information included in the correspondence data information based on a comparison result obtained by the comparison means.

Abstract: The automatic performance device includes a storage part for storing a plurality of performance patterns, a performance part for playing a performance on the basis of a performance pattern stored in the storage part, an input part for inputting performance information through an input device that receives a performance operation of a user, and a selection part for selecting a performance pattern being a maximum likelihood estimation from the plurality of performance patterns stored in the storage part on the basis of the performance information input to the input part.

Abstract: Mixture preventing valve includes first flow passage allowing a first fluid to flow; second flow passage allowing a second fluid to flow; communication passage allowing first flow passage and second flow passage to communicate with each other; valve body that opens/closes communication passage; and valve seat provided on an inner wall surface of the communication passage that contacts valve body. Valve body includes first valve body piece and second valve body piece arranged side by side in a state of being separated from each other in a movement direction of valve body. Valve seat contacts respective outer peripheral surfaces of first valve body piece and second valve body piece. In the inner wall surface, a portion where valve seat contacts outer peripheral surface of first valve body piece, and a portion where valve seat contacts outer peripheral surface of the second valve body piece exist on a same plane.

Abstract: Provided is a purifying method capable of deodorizing a filling device in a shorter period than the conventional purifying method. The purifying method has a sterilizing step for sterilizing at least a filling device either periodically or each time when a kind of a liquid product to be filled thereby is to be changed in an aseptic filling system having the filling device configured to fill a predetermined unit filling amount of such liquid product in an individual container. The method includes an air supplying step #3 for supplying steam to the filling device which has been emptied of the liquid product, prior to or simultaneously with the sterilizing step #5 and a liquid supplying step #4 for supplying, after the air supplying step #3, a rinsing solution or a new liquid product after product change to the filling device.
