Studio "Audio" Search Needs Categories (sfx, music, ambient, etc)

I’m looking for a clangy armor sound effect and I have to wade through piles of 1-2 minute long songs while looking for sound effects.

Some categorization here would go a long way, or at least a filter for sound length.

Introducing Audio Search by Length in Marketplace

You’ve asked and it’s finally here! We are incredibly excited to announce a new way to search for audio assets in the Marketplace: by file length! Whether you’re looking for a short sound effect or a long background music track, now you have the ability to set exactly the length you are looking for to easily find the best audio for your game. To take advantage of this feature. head over to the Marketplace inside Studio and navigate to the Audio category via the dropdown menu. Next, open up the…

Just click the filter icon next to the search bar and options to filter by sound duration should appear.

I’m still gonna bump this because this solution doesn’t really solve the question. Even when setting length to 10-20 seconds, you still get bombarded with a bunch of junk uploaded by Roblox which usually has no correlation to the key word you use.

My suggestion would be a way to completely remove anything Roblox pre-added (I highly doubt any body has actually used any of the sounds they uploaded to their games) as well as adding tabs like shedletsky suggested, like sfx, music, etc. Sfx are a nightmare to come by in the catalog, and are a nightmare to find online anyway (finding royalty free sounds is a pain on its own, let alone having to pay robux to upload it!)
