Where did the ding noise come from?

[JackFlash]

Probably a stock sound they didn't have to pay any rights for.

How many of you hear the "forest" sounds from EQ in like some terrible Syfi TV show or bad cable movie?

Welcome to the world wide web of public domain sound effects.
As for the source, we'll probably never know. :\

All media use audio from the same set of un-licensed sounds.

You know that scream of a guy falling off a cliff every movie from the 60s till now use? Gunshots, horse clopping, etc.

Saves a bit of money and no one really notices it.

The DING sound (and many other sounds like bears/other animals etc.) all come from sound libraries that companies pay to use. I've heard EQ bear roars in a bunch of shows. Heard the ding several other places.
