<p>An information signal recording apparatus is disclosed wherein a high degree of accuracy is assured for tracking servoing upon editing in which a digital video signal is divided into a plurality of channels and recorded in a plurality of tracks (4A, 4B, 4C, 4D). In the information signal recording apparatus, an information signal is divided for each predetermined amount into four channels. The information signals of the four channels are recorded in four oblique tracks (4A, 4B, 4C, 4D) on a magnetic tape (3) by a rotary magnetic head apparatus. Tracking signals are recorded independently of the information signals into areas (4TA, 4TC) at predetermined positions of two every other ones (4A, 4C) of the four magnetic tracks (4A, 4B, 4C, 4D) in longitudinal directions of the magnetic tracks (4A, 4B, 4C, 4D). The areas (4TA, 4TC) into which such tracking signals are recorded are positioned so that, when the remaining every other magnetic tracks (4B, 4D) are formed, they are not formed adjacent the areas. <IMAGE></p> |
