Abstract
An editing can be made in real time while data is being input. A recording and reproducing method comprises a first processing step for reading out first information (D1) on a recording medium (D) and storing the first information (D1) thus read out in a storage memory (18), a second processing step for writing third information (D3), which results from synthesizing the first information (D1) read out from the recording medium (D) and second information (D2) input from the outside, in an output memory (19), and a third processing step for reading third information (D3) of a predetermined capacity from the output memory (19) and recording the third information (D3) thus read out on the recording medium (D), wherein after a first operation cycle composed of the first processing step, the second processing step and a loop processing operation for repeating a composite operation of the second and third processing steps until the storage capacity of the storage memory (18) reaches a predetermined capacity is carried out once, a second operation cycle composed of the first processing step and a loop processing operation for repeating a composite operation of the second and third processing steps until the storage capacity of the storage memory (18) reaches a predetermined capacity is repeated until the reading is finished.
