Abstract

A test signal is recorded on a first recording disk according to a constant linear velocity technique. The test signal is reproduced from the first recording disk. A quality of the reproduced test signal is evaluated as a function of a position on the first recording disk. An information signal is recorded on a second recording disk having first and second areas. A degree of deterioration in record quality in the first area is greater than a degree of deterioration in record quality in the second area. A recording density in the recording of the information signal on the first area is decreased below a recording density in the recording of the information signal on the second area. A degree of the decrease in the recording density is changed as a function of a position on the second recording disk in response to the evaluated quality.
