I ordered this book, and it came with two CDs, but they both had the same thing on them.

Other folks who own the book: did I receive a 'misprint'? Do you all have two different CDs?

One CD should be for use with a Bb trumpet the other cd is for the C trumpet. Did you get two of the same?

All the tracks have the same name, and the CDs, too (when I upload into iTunes), but I didn't realize they had the different tunings. I should check that, but I'm guessing that's my issue... I only really care about the Bb version, anyway.

Thanks for clearing that up!

If memory serves (this was a few years ago):

Because the B-flat and C discs are identical in terms of track number and track length, I wasn't able to get CDDB to distinguish between the two when I entered the track information for them.

So when you get track information, there's no way for iTunes to tell between the two discs. If anyone knows a way to assign a unique ID to two otherwise identical discs for CDDB, please let me know.

Thanks,

You could change the album name, too. If you select all the tracks at once and hit "get info" (command/cntrl + i), then you can write in the album field "Stamp C-version" or "Useless Version" or something like that. After you hit OK, on your ipod (or in itunes) these tracks will be sorted separately (assuming you organize your music by anything other than Name), but still have the same titles.
