Abstract
A read head makes a relative movement with respect to a recording medium to simultaneously read data from at least two of a plurality of recording areas of the recording medium in which the data is recorded. A memory section stores data from at least one of the two recording areas read by the read head. A relative position detecting section detects a relative position between the recording medium and the read head. A controlling section controls a storing operation of the data from the one of the two recording areas into the memory section, on the basis of an output of the relative position detecting section. A readout section reads out the data stored in the memory section in synchronization with a clock of a specified period. A modulation section demodulates the data read out by the readout section, after the modulation of the data read from another of the two recording areas.
