Just use spotlight to search for all the application names for the relevant applications. then have a hunt around your library directories and delete everything there.
 
My first question would be why you'd want to get rid of it. Anyways there are a few items to get rid of. First, the applications (FCP, DVDSP, Soundtrack, Color, Motion...), their preferences, as well as their folders in Application support, and Soundtrack has music files in a folder named Apple Loops. It gets tricky there as Garageband also uses those loops. Also, AppZapper is nice but it misses a lot of folders most of the time. I think it essentially does a Spotlight search so anything without the programs name gets missed. It fulfills most of my needs though.
