What's that sound called?

What's that sound called?I'm trying to find a sound effect that usually is associated with a suspenseful realization. It is a three-note, mid-low-high jingle, sort of "DUH-duh-DAAAA" and is usually played in a scene where the plot thickens or the villain is revealed. Used a lot in cheesy older B-movies. Forgive my poor description; I'm not musically inclined.

Re: What's that sound called?Technically, it's called a sting, if that helps.

Re: What's that sound called?Jack, at sounddogs.com the keywords accent suspense brings up quite a few examples. Not sure if this particular one is there.

Re: What's that sound called?Thanks guys... I'm sure there's a specific name for this "sting" since it is a classic and has been used in many Old-Time Radio & TV shows and movies... If I could hum it to you you'd probably say "Oh, that's called a (insert name here)".
I checked sounddogs.com and found "High Orchestral Suspense Accent 4" which is almost the same except the one I'm thinking of is more punchy, with each note as a separate beat rather than run together. I've been looking for this for an audio play of mine for quite a while, searching RF music and SFX websites, and finally thought if anyone can help me it would be someone here.

Re: What's that sound called?Try
http://www.findsounds.com which can find sounds on the web. I'm not sure what you would call it. I can hear exactly what you are looking for but I think it is phoenically bom bom bah. I know I've heard it recently in one of my kids shows where one of the characters sings it. Maybe Backyardigans. Happy Editing,

Re: What's that sound called?Ps. I hope you get my humor in spelling the phoentics of the sound effect.
Happy Editing,

Re: What's that sound called?
BigScene.wav was close, but the middle note should be lower than the first... Thanks everyone for the help; I'll keep looking. ASRock Z77 Pro4, Xeon E3-1230 V2, Windows 7 64-bit, 32GB RAM, 3GB GTX 660 ti, 240GB SSD for OS/programs, 3x640GB in RAID0 for projects
