Can someone please explain this sound? I swear all american TV shows use it and its fucking annoying. Another one that abuses it is my cat from hell.

it looks like a useful instrument for TV and film, and these shows just shit all over it playing the same dumb sound all the time.

It's the bad karma sound from Fallout 3
That's some kind of illuminati brainwashing shit man. Everytime you hear it you feel like drinking cocacola

It's like I'm actually watching Forensic Files

I actually want to own one because the sound they create is so odd and unique but they're incredibly expensive, unfortunately.

All these reality shows overuse these sounds
They use that Cymbal Swell sfx so much
I don't see how any sound editor could do this for a living without killing himself out of shame.
Who the fuck would watch these shows and think to themselves "hmm, needs more cymbal swells, can't let the overall sound level drop under 90dB, even for a second, gotta fill all that space with useless shit."
