I'll try testing in this conditions your brushes.

I've an idea... because Martin said something about to modify the values to
2 on Input Pen Graph ... perhaps the max factor in the gain factor is 2.
Perhaps is useful to have a label to show the values on Quick Brush
Settings slides while you modify them.

Good tip ...
Another tip to understand the actual sensitivity of a brush... is to put
the stylus at 90° and to draw something without forcing nothing ... is a
bit difficult to make this but is possible using all two hands :) ... the
unique pressure will be the natural weight of the stylus pen.
I've did some tests in this way to understand how the conditions of Mypaint
preferences are combined with the presets of libwacom, per example.

Well, perhaps I have not been able to explain the ghostlines ... are always
present only in 7 brushes before you apply any correction with gain factor.

thanks
