Sound effects is a non-music audio category focused on recorded or designed sounds created to represent actions, environments, and phenomena. Rather than songs or compositions, it consists of single events (one-shots), short sequences, or loops used to support storytelling, worldbuilding, and user feedback in media. Its practice spans on-location recording, foley performance, and studio sound design using synthesis and processing. Typical subjects include footsteps, doors, vehicles, weather, animals, impacts, whooshes, and abstract textures. Sound effects function as building blocks for radio, film, television, games, theater, podcasts, immersive installations, and UI/UX audio.
