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

I hear it ALL the time lol

So many sounds from EQ I hear in like bad TV shows and stuff and I lol super hard and people look at me like WUT?

I too hear the generic "spooky forest" background in shows, along with the bear agro sound, and the screeching falcon...

Always think of butcher block for the forest background loop. (Heh. Forest loop.)

I definitely heard the ding in an episode of Doctor Who. I'm trying to remember which episode exactly but it was one of the ones with Christpher Eccelston and Billie Piper.

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

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.
