You can specify the range of speckle size variability that you want the expression to apply by moving the Min Size slider. This setting represents a percentage of the Size setting. For example, if you connect speckle size with pressure and set Min Size to 20% and Size to 70%, the speckle size will change from 20% to 70% when you apply pressure during a brushstroke.

You can link speckle size to an audio signal. For more information, see To link brush attributes and effects to audio.
Dynamic speckles can change their size in synch with audio.
Dynamic speckles can have soft or hard edges.
