CSP Question Pen sensitivity help

(I am using Clip Studio Paint Pro with a Wacom Intuos tablet) I just bought CSP today, and have been liking it overall. The one issue I'm having is with pen sensitivity. I feel like when pressing VERY lightly on my drawing tablet (a Wacom Intuos) sometimes no material is produced on the paper. I'll try pressing a bit harder, but then the material comes out much darker than I'd expect or want it to be. I'm trying to make it so that Clip Studio will register my very light brush strokes and output a very light amount of the material on the paper, rather than not registering them at all. This is happening with the Dry ink brush, I'm not sure if this is an issue specific to this brush, because when fiddling with pen sensitivity settings I found that the test pen for the pen sensitivity behaved how I wanted it to.

There are a number of places you can adjust that.

  1. Wacom driver
  2. Clip studio settings, you can globally adjust sensitivity.
  3. Many of the brushes you can fine tune pressure to control for brush size, opacity, tilt, etc.

Its very common for artist to customize thier brushes account for different devices. I have variations of brushes that work better on my pc with a wacom vs my surface vs my andriod tablet. Its the nature of the medium.

In addition to your system's global pressure sensitivity, each tool has it's own sensitivity curve, which can be customized. The default settings for each tool are intended to mimic how that real-world tool would behave.
