An optical recording apparatus employing a plurality of modulated laser beams as means for recording information on an optical recording medium, comprising a laser beam source which emits a laser beam, a plurality of carrier sources which generate carriers respectively of different frequencies, a plurality of switching circuits respectively connected to the carrier sources to interrupt the carriers intermittently for modulation according to information data signals applied respectively thereto to provide driving signals, an acoustooptic reflector which splits the laser beam into a plurality of discrete laser beam intermittently interrupted respectively according to the driving signals, a focusing lens for focusing the plurality of discrete laser beams on spots on the recording surface of a recording medium, and a polygonal rotating mirror disposed between the acoustooptic deflector and the focusing lens to reflect the plurality of discrete laser beams so as to sweep the recording surface of the recording medium for information recording simultaneously on a plurality of recording tracks on the recording medium.
