By default, each CD you download from CDDB is registered in the database as a separate album.
If you are downloading disc data in the main window (by using the 'Album / New - Query CDDB' function), and you want to add the second CD (or third, etc.) in a multi-disc set, click the Add CD - Query CDDB button
below the track list in the 'Album Edit' window. CATraxx will then add the CD as part of the selected album.
If you are downloading disc data in the 'Download from CDDB' window (batch mode), you must tell CATraxx that two or more CDs belong together by updating the Album Title and Disc # fields before you choose Transfer. Give all CDs the same album title, and update the disc number accordingly. You do not have to modify the disc titles.
For example, "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" by Smashing Pumpkins consists of two discs that will have the titles "Dawn to Dusk" and "Twilight to Starlight" after you have downloaded the disc data from CDDB. To have CATraxx merge these two discs into one album, you must set the Album Title of both CDs to "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness", the disc # of the second CD ("Twilight to Starlight") to 2, and the total number of discs to 2.
Note: If you forget to do this before you choose Transfer, you can always use the Merge CDs function later to merge two CDs into one album.
