Talk:Joel Valentine Castanet Sound/@comment-26104212-20180311053043

I think that Heather Olsen used this (and some other Joel Valentine SFX you'd hear in, like, classic Powerpuff Girls) in The Fairly OddParents episodes she worked on. Does Advantage Audio have copies of Joel's unique sound library? Since Joel's a private contractor (according to Hacienda/Disney mixer Eric Freeman), I don't know how other services would have this stuff, nor should they since it's very unique to Joel's amazing work.

It could, however, be easily confused for a castanet sound used in many DigiPost.TV projects like Animaniacs, as well as the Courage the Cowardly Dog episode "Head of Meat", a Glenwood Editorial project; this sound is quieter and faster paced than Joel's castanet. It may not be in FOP or Ren & Stimpy, then.

Since when was Joel's castanet used in SpongeBob though? Jeff has his own sounds, like his scuffly scratching sound, or he uses the usual HB spoon rattle or WB teeth chatter. Frankly, if Heather Olsen can use Joel's sfx in FOP, then personally I wish she'd use them in SVTFOE... or leave the sound design to Joel Valentine among other sound designers.
