A method of adjusting the lateral position of writing on a magnetic tape. Alternate data and servo information is recorded in a first track at a first azimuth angle (B18). Then, a second track is written at a different azimuth angle while leaving a first portion of a first track (B30). Then, a thrid track is written (B38) at the azimuth angle of the first track while inhibiting writing when a servo area is encountered (B42). Servo control takes place based on the amplitude of the servo information read from a head spaced behind the write element (B46, B50).
