So the mates in the band say they can hear my 24"x14", 16"x16", 13"x10" Vistalite kit much clearer than my Maple 26"x14", 16"x16" & 14"x12".
I'd really like to keep playing the 26" kit. It's currently fitted with all Vintage Coated Emperors (including the bass drum with a felt strip and a 5" port on the front) but I play it with a felt beater on the 26" instead of a wooden one (on the 24) since it sounds better.
Anyway, if I want to "cut through" better, does it actually make sense to use the Vistalite kit, (albeit smaller) instead of the Maple?
Cheers for any help and/or suggestions (aside from the usual 'have everyone turn down' stuff).
