My second attempt at making a clean rip of the full version of the track that plays in episodes 3, 15, 40 and 55 of the Tokunaga score of Dragon Ball GT, most notably when Piccolo sacrifices himself at the end of the Baby saga.
Background:
Yo what's up guys, been a while. I've been busy with work and other stuff over the last few months, haven't really been able to work on rips during this period but I was able find some time recently. I made a rip of this track nearly two years ago • Dragon Ball GT Soundtr... but I figured that I would return to it now that better software is available, and to be honest I was never satisfied with that attempt as if anything it sounds worse than if I had left it untouched. In the time since my last upload I've come across a number of new programs for removing vocals from music, which led me to coming up with the idea of redoing this track. This may lead to me returning to more of my older rips in the future.
Now the only part of this rip that needed significant work was 0:52-1:13, everything else was already clean. I used Ultimate Vocal Remover to get rid of much of the reverb present, though due to the way that the vocals were set up in stereo form I had to split the audio down into mono and edit each channel separately as this seemed to work better for the AI. I edited most of the remaining vocals out in ISSE, before reassembling the two channels back into stereo form in Audacity. I also used the noise removal tool to polish the entire track. Overall, this attempt is much better than my 2020 version and now actually sounds like a real track. Hope you enjoy folks 😉
