Wacom Intuos 4 Express Keys and Studio Artist

Posted by Jean Detheux on June 24, 2009 at 9:58am
Hi, I just received an Intuos 4 tablet ("Medium," thank you Wacom) and am wondering if people on this forum have been using the Express Keys in combination with Studio Artist, and if so, how? I find the looks of the new tablet very impressive, having the sidebar and such illuminated seems a real plus, especially if working in a live performance low light situation. So, before I make a mess of it, any pointers? Thank you

    The sidebar has some interesting new features we'd like to take advantage of directly in Studio Artist at some point.

    The Intuos 4 tablet also has an extended pressure range (more pressure levels available). You need Studio Artist 4 to take advantage of that.

      Wacom has a bunch of tutorials on line, this one especially.
      I'll spend some time learning to configure the Express Keys and such, I can already see how that would work very well with some of SA's shortcuts and this, without having to leave the tablet.

    Since we're on the topic of Wacom tablets, i have a question. Is there anyone here on the forum that uses a wacom pen other than the standard one? Like an airbrush tool or the art pen with barrel rotation? Or pen id with multitple pens. We spend a lot of time to add lots of features to support things like that but i'm kind of unclear is anyone actually uses them.

      John,
      Am testing the different nibs, but that's about it.

      I have wondered why the different configurations based on analogue media. I use the provided pen. Always have since using a graphic pad. (personal preferences)

Since the Forum is going away in June, has anyone started to make a copy of all the stuff in the Tutorials forum?I've made copies of some of the tutorial material on the main site, but haven't looked at the Tutorial Forum yet.I'm going to continue copying as much as I can for my own personal use anyway, but if anyone else is doing it, or has already started doing it, please let me know.Maybe we can co-ordinate our efforts. ps can't ..... believe John, would let this happen without so much as a…

Studio Artist is in Italy!

I was crawling the streets of Matera, Italy today and may have discovered where SA is hiding!  (see attached photo). Not meaning to make light of this great, sad mystery. But I just couldn't resist as I try to make sense of what's happening. Losing my connection to SA, Synthetik and John has been a great sadness... and if real, ends a monumental era in my creative life. love,~Victor
