Ever wondered why crusher-X has a blue lobster as its logo? Here’s the story:

 

The lobster is more than a quirky mascot - it’s a sonic metaphor. It represents a rare, mutated creature, reflecting extreme, experimental sound and the ability to transform audio in unconventional ways. Its hard shell embodies armor, crushing power, and resistance - much like crusher-X itself, which mangles audio until it becomes nearly unrecognizable. The claws suggest grabbing, tearing, and manipulating sound grains, mirroring granular synthesis at a micro-surgical level. The lobster’s segmented, mechanical-organic form mirrors crusher-X’s hybrid identity: part living machine, part algorithmic processor. It’s a predator of sound, hunting, capturing, and reshaping audio into unexpected textures. And why blue instead of red? Unlike the warmth and familiarity of a cooked red lobster, blue signals raw, alive, cold, digital, and deep-sea energy. It conveys technical precision, otherworldly soundscapes, and the rarity of the processor itself - a freak of nature, engineered for extreme sonic exploration.
