I read that Dave Grohl, on a Queens of the Stone Age album, recorded the drums (skins) without the cymbals; then later tracked the cymbal parts, to get an ultra-discrete drum sound. Of course, in order to do this, he had to have the whole thing charted out.
Not entirely relevant, but your comment just reminded me of that.

Excellent work. Must be a great sense of accomplishment.
