AI-Based Sound Effect Generation: A Narrative Review of Generative Models Across Input Modalities
Sound effects play a crucial role in conveying actions, events, and environmental cues across digital applications, often requiring a high degree of variation and contextual adaptability. Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven audio generative models are rapidly growing in popularity and have the potential to transform the way sound is synthesized and used across various applications. In response to this growing momentum, this chapter reviews and analyzes recent AI-based generative models for sound effect synthesis, with a focus on how different input modalities (text, visual, audio, and multimodal) affect the quality, controllability, and contextual relevance of the generated audio. It examines 30 peer-reviewed articles sourced from Google Scholar, IEEE Xplore, and the ACM Digital Library, exploring the evolution of AI generative models over the past five years. The results show that multiple models achieved state-of-the-art performance, producing high-fidelity, semantically aligned, and increasingly temporally coherent sound effects across tasks. However, despite these advances, the review identifies persistent challenges, including limitations in temporal synchronization for complex multi-event scenarios, gaps between objective metrics and human perception, and trade-offs between controllability and generative diversity. Overall, the chapter highlights that AI-driven sound effect generation is progressing toward more adaptive, scalable, and context-aware systems, offering significant implications for future sound design workflows and interactive media applications.
