You're very observant... =)  The P2500, XL-7, and MP-7 Roms were
updated for the keyboard, and then retrofitted into the Command
Stations.  They have the same IDs, but either have an additional bank
of presets, or small preset fixes.  When the ROM ID stays the same, the
idea is that you could use the newer ones in place of the old ones (but
not necessarily the other way around).

You can (usually) check to see what "version" sound ROM you have by
checking the last preset of the ROM.
