New pads - old rotors

Have you noticed any issues with braking performance when swapping say a set of hawk or similar pads to a new pad, say PFC01 or Carbotech Xp9 using the same old rotor. Assuming the rotors are in good shape.

I have had some problems in the past with the Mustang rotors as the old pad seamed to leave some material on the rotor that the new pad did not like. In the end the brakes did not feel very smooth. Maybe it was just the pads I was using back then. So far I have not had issues putting on the same compund with the old rotors.

Just looking for your experiences as I want to test a couple different compunds the next time out and want to be prepared.
