The information recording apparatus of the present invention includes N servo heads. Servo signals outputted respectively from the servo heads are delayed by a delay circuit such that the peaks of the waveforms of the servo signals coincide with each other. The delayed servo signals are added up by an adder. Thus, the output level of the servo signal can be increased by N times and the S/N ratio of the servo signal can be also increased by √N times. As a result, the precision of PES improves and the amount of off-track can be reduced. Therefore, even if a magnetic layer in magnetic tape has a small thickness, it is possible to prevent the decline of the output level of the servo signal and the S/N ratio.
