It should be in the Preferences (hint - scroll down!) if installed
correctly. You may need to power off & on.

Who doesn't recognize? MacOS, SoundIconMaker or NCU? If it's
SoundIconMaker, you either have an unregistered version (sound file too
big) or the file you are converting is the wrong file type.
From the SoundIconMaker manual (which is not a book about a Spanish
guy)
"Sound Icon Maker accepts both System 7 Sound and AIFF sound files.
However they must meet the following requirements:
1) Uncompressed sound samples
2) Monophonic (single channel)
3) 8 or 16 bit.
4) Standard sampling rates of 8000Hz, 8012Hz, 10800Hz, 11025Hz, 11127Hz,
21600Hz, 22050Hz, 22254Hz, or 44100Hz."
You have to convert an MP3 to an AIFF 8 bit mono (smallest file size)
before SoundIconMaker will recognize it.
I use QuickTime Pro (the upgrade to the IEEE standard QuickTime).
