Abstract

A magnetic digital storage method and system which can improve a recording density and can reduce a cross-talk upon reproducing. An inputted high-speed digital signal is converted to a plurality of low-speed digital signal sequences by a recording circuit and each of the low-speed signal sequence is recorded onto a plurality of adjacent recorded tracks of a recording medium by integrated parallel recording heads. One servo signal is commonly recorded to the plurality of recorded tracks. Further, when recording the digital signal to the adjacent recorded tracks of the recording medium, a delay of a signal that is applied to each recording head is adjusted such that the phases of magnetic transition points given by the recording signal in the adjacent recorded tracks are not identical in the circumferential direction.
