Unlike Stock Sound Effect, some sounds are so iconic to a specific character, they might almost be considered a non-verbal catchphrase (and can be used almost as a Shout-Out on their own). They can be connected to a series, or a particular character, leading to that character being Recognizable by Sound.
Compare Signature Roar. If it's a melody that follows to a character rather than a sound effect, that's a Leitmotif.
No fanfares.

Monster Hunter
The sudden, Jaws-esque beat, inspired by Metal Gear, that plays whenever a monster sees you qualifies.
"So tasty!" every time you correctly cook a steak. Coincidentally, much like Beedle's "Thank you," these are the only two words ever actually spoken for most of the series until Monster Hunter: World.

Tom and Jerry: Tom's incredibly painful scream, which had two variations ("AAAAAAAAAA" and "Aw-a-ho-hoo-aaw!"). Notably, the screams are so iconic to the series that many of the later adaptations and follow-ups directly reuse them (as well as certain other effects, like gulping or Tom's laughs) despite their lower sound quality sticking out compared to the modern sound effects.

Bugs Bunny munching on a carrot.note Fun fact: Mel Blanc hated the taste of carrots, and tried to find a suitable replacement, but in the end, nothing munches like a carrot, so Mel had to spit them out once he got done with the line.

Homestuck:
Some trolls have distinctive noises that they make when talking, and which they consistently transcribe when writing in messaging programs. Gamzee honks, while Feferi makes glubbing noises.
Three of the four types of Consort have a sound that they make repeatedly when excited, when speaking, or simply when they've go nothing better to do — "glub" for the salamanders, done while blowing large bubbles form their mouths; "nak" for the crocodiles; and "thhp" for the iguanas, done while flicking their tongues in and out. The turtles are the only ones not to do this, and instead just sweat nervously.

Undertale:
Flowey's Evil Laugh.
The sound effects that play as you scroll through the menus are fairly recognizable.
The "!" sound effect is something that you'll hear commonly.
The "slashing" sound effect will especially be this when you focus on fighting.
Those who pursue the most violent path possible will find the "chak...bwingbwingbwing!" sound of their SOUL shattering ingrained into their head thanks to the two enemies on this route that pose a significant challenge, one of which is the hardest boss in the entire game.

Halo: Wort wort wort!, because Elites Are More Glamorous.
In the same videogame, the "Thwunk-Whoosh" of the rocket launcher is instantly recognisable before you get blown to bits by a rocket.
While not used in the first Halo, Phantoms are very well-known by now for their unmistakable sound effect whenever approaching one's hearing vicinity, usually foretelling that one is about to have a group of dropped-off Covenant troops to deal with.

Super Mario Bros.: Not a surprise the most iconic video game series in existence would make way for the most iconic video game noises in existence:
Mario's jumping noise, the "ping!" of coins, and Yoshi's tongue and mounting noises.
The Super Mushroom and 1UP Mushroom jingles.
The familiar "glug glug glug" sound doubles as both the "power down" sound as well as traveling through pipes.
From the New Super Mario Bros. series: "BAH-BAH!"
Yoshi's Island has, unfortunately, Baby Mario's crying.
From Mario Kart The "buzz, buzz, buzz, DING!" of the starting line countdown, and the whirring sound of the Spiny Shell that nobody in first place wants to hear. Also, notably in Wii, the warning sound that plays when you're being chased by a homing item like a Red Shell or Spiny Shell.

Several sound effects from The Real Ghostbusters ended up in other shows. For example, one episode of Neon Genesis Evangelion depicted the Evas' targeting-computer as making the sound of Egon's PKE Meter (a steady "chk-chk-chk-chk-chk" sound).

One Piece has plenty of signature audio effects in the anime, such as the distinctive "thud" sounds made by larger characters' steps (such as Moria, Kaido and others), but two particular examples in the manga: first, the Lapahns (literal, bear-sized Killer Rabbit beasts) let out a loud sound rendered as "PYOON" written with an extra "maru" (the symbol turning "hi" into "pi"), which, according to Oda, sounds like this: "Without letting your lips touch, you must explosively let out a deep breath and stick your chin out at the same time." Much later, Emporio Ivankov's Hell Blink's manga sound effect is rendered as "BA-CHINKK" with an extra ten to the tenten symbol (which makes the "ha" into "ba"). Again according to the author, it means that you have to enounce with enough strength to send some spittle flying. Finally, Weaponized by Scratchman Apoo, whose Devil Fruit powers turn his body into an orchestra and use onomatopeic sounds to cause a distinctive effect on the people he targets: so far he has shown "Shan" (cuts the target), "Don" (explodes the target) and "Bon" (smash the target).

Each Pokémon has its own distinct entry soundbite, although the level to which they are distinct varies.
The slight whoosh of a Poke Ball being thrown and the 'ch' of the Ball opening (note that the practiced ear can tell the difference between the 'opening sound' used in the anime and in the games).
De-doop. De-doop. De-doop. Pshh. You caught a Pokemon!
The healing sound effect of be-do-be-do-be-do-beep is sufficiently iconic of the action that even if it plays out of context, the player knows that their team has just been healed regardless.
The battle sound effects, such as the in-battle healing, item use, or the psychic damage effect, proved to be so iconic that they either have never left or were brought back after fans took their replacements poorly.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is famous for its liberal use of written sound effects. The "DODODODO" and "GOGOGOGO" Japanese sound effects are highly associated with the series even though they aren't exclusive to it. Sometimes the manga also uses nonsensical sound effects such as "MEMETAH" for the sound of a frog being punched, which became iconic within the Japanese fanbase.
The 2014 anime version of Stardust Crusaders has the distinct sound of Star Platinum landing its mighty punches, which sounds not dissimilar to a gunshot. Combined with Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs, it sounds like a machine gun firing. When DIO comes into play, there is also the distorted sound effect that plays when The World stops time.

Warhammer 40,000:
Boltguns are said to make a distinct hiss-crack sound (bolt rounds use solid propellants and then their own fuel), but they don't really sound alike through various adaptations (or even like particularly hissy-cracky) except that they're loud.
The onomatopeia for a gunpowder weapon firing on full-auto is "dakka" (or rather "dakkadakkadakkadakkadakkadakka...", and has spread beyond the 40K fandom.

Doctor Who
The sound the TARDIS makes materialising and dematerialising. Which is rendered in comics as "Vworp Vworp" and often described as a "wheezing, groaning" noise. Lampshaded in The Time of Angels.
The vreee sound of the Doctor's sonic screwdriver.
The Master's drumming, inspired by the iconic theme tune. Revealed to be that exact rhythm because it's the sound of a Time Lord's double heartbeat.
The quiet hum of a stationary TARDIS, and its Evil Counterpart, the pulsing electronic "heartbeat" sound of Dalek technology.
The distant clanging of the Cloister Bell which serves as the TARDIS's Oh, Crap! signal indicating that something is very wrong with time or space.

The Inexplicable Adventures of Bob!: When a spaceship or other large object crashes into Bob's roof, the result is almost always the word "BOOM" in a particular block lettering, usually with the letters arranged vertically. Voluptua's transformations get a "FLASH!" in a swoopy serif lettering, and borfomite beams get a "KWA-BOOM!" in the same serif style. When a borfomite beam strikes Bob's roof, the letters KWA are in the serif lettering, and the BOOM is in the block lettering. More recently, the strip introduced an official Unsound Effect, the word "Ninj!" - as in, the absence of sound produced by a ninja. Hence, a spaceship exploding in vacuum goes "NINJ!"

The classic Doom games have several examples, including the Cacodemon death and Arch-Vile alert sound effects. Perhaps the most notable is the "alien speech" that is spoken by the end boss of Doom 2, which was actually a recording of John Romero's voice reading the line "To win the game, you must defeat me, John Romero" played backwards and with extra effects added.

An instantly-recognisable "sting" is cited as a key component of the greatest wrestling entrance themes, to let the fans know who's coming out the instant they hear it even before the theme starts so they all pop as one. This is sometimes a spoken line rather than a sound effect (The Rock's "If ya smell...!" or the female voice murmuring "You think you know me..." at the start of Edge's theme), but some of the greatest of all time have been simple distinct sound effects, perhaps most famously "Stone Cold" Steve Austin's shattering glass and Kazuchika Okada's dropped coin bouncing off the ground.

The various energy sound effects used in Dragon Ball Z are all strongly associated with it. Of particular note:
The charge-up sound of the Kamehameha
The pulsing aura of a Super Saiyan.
The whooshing sound of a character flying at high speeds.
The beeping sounds made by scouters.

Transformers:
The sound when the Transformers transform, albeit not in every series. (Basically: G1, RID, and Animated use it for every transformation. Energon and Prime homage it by having their own versions, though the Prime version sounds very much like moving machinery and happens amidst other noises.)
In The Transformers, the shot sound effects used for the two enemy factions, but also Megatron's fusion cannon, which gets its own deeper, boomier noise. In Transformers: Animated, it returns, and is definitely the only thing in the series that makes the sound.

The sound effects for flipping through menus has not changed since melee. They're instantly recognizable to any Smash fan.
There is a distinct crashing sound effect for any attack that sends an opponent straight down, signifying a Meteor Smash.
Ultimate has the sound that plays in a "Final Zoom" which signifies that you've most likely dealt the finishing blow on your opponent in a stock battle.
