I found the solution. Apparently every Roland series 500 keyboard has
an ADVANCED MODE switch. Turning it off solved the problem.
The switch is on the left side of the keyboard, I suspect this 'trick'
holds true for many A-xyz Roland keyboard.
I'll add a few more words to make this pop up on search engines:
my Roland a-500 (a-500s, a-800pro) keyboard was not recognised, but I
solved the problem.
That's interesting. I wonder of their "Advanced" term is just a synonym for
"Proprietary"?
