Recently I've stepped up to playing 2B sticks and everything's going great, except...
If I use medium-weight cymbals that respond well to 2B sticks, I find the cymbals have a huge latency when I try to play them lightly for quieter songs. When I hit a cymbal and it takes a while for its sound to peak, so the cymbals always sound late, creating a dragging effect that sucks the energy out of the rhythm.
Is there any solution for that, other than adding more (lighter) cymbals to the kit? I'm trying to keep the kit small, to minimize the footprint of my kit.
