a. drumkv1 cuts off longer samples
yes, for long samples (>2sec.) the default settings for each element's envelope generators might cut the samples prematurely. you'll have to check on those cases whether the Decay1 and Decay2 time settings are fit and appropriate for each sample length. [UPDATE: forgot to say that a note-off triggers the Delay2 phase; you can opt to disable note-off reaction though it's a vertical configuration setting which applies to whole stanza/preset]
b. way to set panning on individual samples in one instance of drumkv1
yes, you can have specific settings on a per element/sample basis: look in the OUT section, there's a Width, Panning and Volume settings that applies to each element sample. nb. strictly technical speaking, panning here it's more kind of a stereo balance control than an actual spatial panning, whatever :)
