The stock lift/elevator sound that all American lifts seem to make when they arrive on your floor. It's a short ding, like the bell used at hotel reception desks to call someone. Can all lifts really make this sound? You'd think so from American TV, at any rate!

That is a common sound of a wolf howling, heavily used in Disney Cartoons, in Hanna-Barbera Cartoons and even in Fun And Fancy Free. It's still used to this day. There was also that same stock wolf sound effect in other TV Shows, movies and commercials. Here is a list of the movies and TV Shows that have the same stock wolf howl sound:
CatDog Courage the Cowardly Dog The Fairly OddParents! Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! Rocko's Modern Life SpongeBob SquarePants Looney Tunes: Back in Action Free Birds

I think this should be a Trivia Trope.
Srg. Dornan: Troper, what are you doing here?! Get back to your post!!!
There's a sound effect used for the "hacker" device in the Call of Duty Black Ops Zombies map "Moon" that I've heard in numerous TV shows. Mostly in cartoons, I believe. The sound can be heard here; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQczEdANMjA
I think the last thing I heard it in was the cartoon "Johnny Test".

Well it's been remarked upon a few times, but this page needs a LOT of reform and organizing. Most of the descriptions here are without examples, and are very vague anyway - I thought it'd be about specific sounds that you hear commonly in many places.
I've found the origin for Aliens and monsters/Film/"Another stock roar", it's Sound Ideas The General Series 6000, 6039 track 41-3 "Animal, Creature Large Animal Roar".
It also can be heard in video games: Heretic Sabreclaw Action sound "CLKACT",
Warcraft II Dragon Screech

Also a clearer example of the sound than one given in the article:

Someone, add this information, I can't due to strange technical issues.
Anybody know anything about the "energy beam groan"? Basically, if you have a discharge of energy (or other things...) that doesn't go pew-pew or sound like an explosion, there's this sound that I've heard a lot that sounds kind of like groaning metal. It's always the exact same sound.
I want to say I heard it in Megamind, but I'm not sure about that. I first heard it in Buzz Lightyear of Star Command as the sound of Zerg's Unimind ray.

Nope, the Unimind ray was not the sound I was thinking of.
Oh, I know an example. 6:35
Holy Jesus, this page needs organization! Maybe it's just me, but I think it's...pretty hard to read.
OK, does anyone know where to find the generic three-note "dramatic sting"? You know the one.
DUN Dun DAAAH!
It's very similar to the one in the "Dramatic Chipmunk" clip, but more like A#, A, C & C# (says the musical illiterate after five minutes fiddling around with a keyboard)
metal door i've heard it a million times! never thought i'd find it here. it was in Walking Dead, for the door to the roof of the building. do the sound people use it as a sort of inside joke like wilhelm scream, or are they just too lazy to use another, or what?
Does any one know the stock sound in the background for the regular digivolution sequence in Digimon Adventures. I don't know about the original dub but the music in the localized version has this sound effect in the music that's a series of whistles that rises in pitch and volume.
It was also used in the Buffy episode, "Teacher's Pet". It was the so called "bat sonar". I'm not sure whether that's what it's actually called.

THAT IS A STOCK SOUND!!!!!!!!! BUT WHAT ON EARTH DOES IT SAY?

It's generic police chatter. I'm sure if you actually did make out what they're saying it wouldn't be very interesting on its own, but yes, it's a stock sound and it is listed here.
Support stupid freshness, yo.

Hm? Hey wait second! I recognize that sound effect that the hamster is making.
That the same animal sound effect that I heard from Meeko (or the raccoon) from the CD-ROM, "Disney Animated Storybook: Pocahontas".

QUESTION: Has anyone added this sound effect already?
