Cubase VST/32 5.0 w Roand Vm3100 PRo

[shveditall]

I am having a problem panning. I am using the Roland VM3100 Pro as my interface and using Cubase VST 32.5.0. This is the problem and i think it hd to do with Cubas but not sure. First of all when i get to select my inputs its weird. it only gives me the options of 1L or1R or 2L or 2R etc. This translates intoinput 1being 1L and input 2 being 1R. I dont like that and if anyone knows a way to fix that i would appreciate it much. The other problem is this. I have used it this way to record. i record one track on 1L and pan it about 75% to the left. then i will record a track on 1R and pan it about 75% to the right, sounds good huh? Nope, on the screen master mixer it looks fine (If i solo one track the appropiate levels are going to the appropriate side) but hearing it is allwrong. First of all the second track i cat hear unless i solo it, then it is really really quite. So then i learned this: if i pan anything hard right (regardless ofwhich 1L or 1R i am using ) it disappears form sound. Weird. It it really strange because looking at the screen of my computer, al the pannings are going as planned, but hearding them i hear nothing. If anyone could please help out a very new newbie i would b very grateful. Thank you
