An apparatus for and method of writing multiple radial locations during a single rotation by deflection and modulation of a recording beam, employs an electron beam with a width that is narrower than a radial width of the exposure pattern. Instead of employing multiple exposure passes, with each offset from the other by a certain radial distance, the apparatus performs the write of the pattern in a single pass. During this single pass, controlled by a single rotation of the turntable on which the disk recording medium is located, the electron beam is deflected in a radial direction by a required amount and modulated in synchronization with the radial deflection. This synchronization of the beam modulation with the beam deflection allows a plurality of tracks to be written or exposed in a single pass.
