sound like it need setting up, pads on non moving side need to be as close to the rotor as possible without rubbing.
Check if the rotor need truing if there's a small rubs at every rotation.
Once you sort that out, you can now adjust the amount of modulation on the moving side.
For improved performance enough to gain a sharp bite like you would get on rims brakes, compressionless housing is highly recommended.

Stupid question time, can disc brakes be tighten? Noticed that on my CX bike I have to pull the brake leavers quite far back in order to stop, they stop fine but they just feel very soft when I apply pressure on the leavers.
