Looking for word that refers to a sound made by a device that simulates real function sound from another device but actually has no function. This might be the shutter noise made by telephone camera

Allo headblivit.
Do you mean the name of the sound or the name of the machine that imitates the sound?

I think he's looking for the name of the machine that makes the (recorded?) noises. Foley walkers are people that shuffle about and make all kinds of background sounds, right?
