Question

Does After Effects have a feature similar to Premiere Pro’s Essential Sound panel, where you can browse and directly import free sound effects

In Adobe Premiere Pro, you can easily add free sound effects through the Essential Sound panel, including built-in integration with Adobe Stock.

Some colleagues prefer to complete animation projects entirely within After Effects. However, I haven’t been able to find a comparable panel or workflow in After Effects. As far as I can tell, sound effects need to be searched for and imported manually.

I’m wondering if I might be overlooking a feature, plugin, or recommended workflow that offers similar functionality in After Effects.
