A magnetic recording apparatus has a rotating drum which rotates magnetic heads at a constant speed. The magnetic heads scan a magnetic tape. On a magnetic tape, an area written by each scan always includes a lateral portion of an area written by the previous scan. In this portion, old data is overwritten by new data, and writing continues. An area excluding the overwritten portion is a recording track. The running speed of the magnetic tape is changed by a system controller, and hence the recording track width can be changed.
