** The Ursa Minor's roar in "Boast Busters".

* The two-tone whistle or flute used by tofu sellers to indicate to the neighbourhood they are in the area. See [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-H1AemaJi9I here]]. It can be heard in various animes about daily life, such as ''Manga/SoredemoMachiWaMawatteiru'' or ''LightNovel/HatarakuMaousama''.

* The high-pitched voice screaming "Wooh! Yeah!" is a sample of James Brown's voice taken from the song "Think (About It)" by Lyn Collins. It was most frequently found in 80s and 90s dance and hip hop tracks.

* The "schwing!" teleportation sound in ''MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''.

** Justified in that it's almost always used on ships built by and for the same stargoing civilization, who would want a standardized sound for "the shit just got real, get your ass where it's supposed to be" across all their ships, stations and installations, and probably bled from there to civilian-sector ships built by that same civilization.

* The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ytCEuuW2_A "horns of failure"]] of ''ThePriceIsRight''
* Law and Order uses a musical-sounding '[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8lDYrvTILc Doink Doink]]', which is so recognisable it has moved over to other Law and Order series.

* A metallic grinding noise sample is used in many electronic music tracks, eg. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrZTmunA6Tg BT - Flaming June]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6KFq8s2fgg Veracocha - Carte Blanche]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEYW4F1D-Oc Signum - First Strike]]. Also used in the I-70 Mountain Bridge music in ''SyphonFilter 2'', and on ''DeadliestCatch''.

** The lion actually had two distinct roars: a ferocious one from the classic days and a digitally-recorded roar that's used to this day. The former was also heard in several MGM cartoons (including ''Lonesome Lenny'' and ''WesternAnimation/KingSizeCanary''), while the latter was used for a demon in ''{{Film/Poltergeist}}'' (which, coincidentally, was the first MGM film to use it on the logo) and on ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' episode "Homer Alone" (when a stressed-out Marge roars at a driver after stopping her car on the bridge).

* The Franchise/{{Godzilla}} Roar -- Despite being [[DisneyOwnsThisTrope copyrighted by Toho]] it is a prerequisite for giant monsters, being more high pitched than what you'd expect from something that big. Even the [[Film/{{Godzilla 1998}} 1998 film]], as far-removed as it was from the franchise spirit, simply remixed the old reliable sound with elephant rumblings.

* The [[http://www.zero-g.co.uk/media/audio/Reverse-114.wav "Reverse 114"]] sample from the ''Cuckooland: Unhinged'' sound archive appears to be used in sped-up form for the BGM [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrXearM6FnM "Dodging Piledrivers"]] in ''VideoGame/{{FEAR}}''.

* The "whoosh" ScareChord heard when MC [[ThrownOutTheAirlock throws himself out the airlock]] in ''VideoGame/{{Halo 2}}'', and in certain encounters with Alma in ''VideoGame/{{FEAR}}''.

** The ''{{Descent}}'' SelfDestructMechanism alarm sound has been also used elsewhere, I think.

** There's also the alarm when a submarine dives. A stock sound similar to this is used in ''{{Halo 3}}'' when a Scarab is damaged or exploding. This sound was also the boss warning klaxon in ''{{Ikaruga}}''.
