Abstract

A recording apparatus records a first information signal in a first recording area in a helical track by a rotary head, and optionally records a second information signal in a second recording area preceding the first recording area. The switch timing of the rotary head is determined and the end of the second recording area is detected. A third information signal is recorded between the first and second recording areas at a position which is adjusted based on the switch timing of the rotary head and the detected end point of time of the second recording area.
