Upon reproducing the information signals recorded in adjacent tracks with such first and second carriers, the reproduced signals are reconverted to have a common carrier frequency by means of respective first and second reconverting signals which similarly have different frequencies selected so that, although an information signal reproduced from a particular track and reconverted to the common carrier frequency will pass through a comb filter, the cross-talk signals reproduced simultaneously from adjacent tracks will be reconverted to have carrier frequencies at nodes of the comb filter so as to be eliminated by the latter. The circuits by which the first and second carriers and the first and second reconverting signals are produced during recording and reproducing operations, respectively, each include a phase-locked loop having a voltagecontrolled variable frequency oscillator whose output frequency is suitably changed in successive field intervals, and preferably in which the center frequency of the voltage-controlled variable frequency oscillator is also changed in the successive field intervals for obtaining rapid stabilization of the respective output frequency.,下面是Magnetic recording and/or reproducing apparatus专利的具体信息内容。
