Saint-Claude, BM, 17 (olim 3) is a copy of the first version of the Collectio XII partium (TX). The preface mentions Burchard and refers to 20 books, even if the collection itself has only twelve. The book was at Saint Claude since at least the late 15th century.

Note that the ARCA descriptions dates the manuscript to the eleventh century and wrongly identifies it as a copy of Burchard.
