Abstract
In a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus, amplitude errors of recording currents respectively supplied to a plurality of rotary magnetic heads are detected, and, in individual periods of sequential scanning of a magnetic recording medium by the plural rotary magnetic heads, the gain of a variable gain amplifier disposed in a signal recording system sequentially supplying an input video signal to the plural rotary magnetic heads is controlled so as to automatically adjust the value of the recording current supplied to each of the rotary magnetic heads.
