A method and apparatus for recording and reproducing an information signal comprised of a video signal and an audio signal in a plurality of successive parallel tracks on a magnetic tape, each track including a first audio section followed by a video section, by converting the audio signal into a PCM digital audio signal; compressing the PCM audio signal; frequency modulating the compressed PCM audio signal to produce an output PCM audio signal; and recording the output PCM audio signal and the video signal in the plurality of successive tracks such that one field interval of the video signal is recorded in the video section of each track and the output PCM audio signal corresponding to one field interval of the video signal is recorded in the audio section of each track and corresponds to the video signal in the leading portion of the previous successive track and the video signal in the trailing portion of the previous alternate track, wherein the audio signal recorded in each track is delayed by a maximum of 1.5 field intervals from the video signal to which it corresponds. |
