you should switch to whatever you sound best on. are you taking private
lessons? if you are, you should ask your teacher to help you find a new
mpc, that is if you think you really need a new one. you mention that you
are 'pleased' with the selmer. why do you want to switch to a vandoren? if
you think you'd like to play on a vandoren, check you the M13 or the 11.6.
good luck!
