A method of recording information signals on an information-signal recording medium, comprising the steps of: temporarily storing a first information signal inputted at a first transfer rate; temporarily storing a second information signal inputted at a second transfer rate; reading out the temporarily-stored first and second information signals on a time sharing basis; recording via a recording device the read-out first and second information signals on the information-signal recording medium respectively on a time sharing basis at a third transfer rate higher than the first and second transfer rates, the recording device being movable relative to the information-signal recording medium; and deciding amounts of the first and second information signals recorded on the information-signal recording medium on the basis of (1) a time taken by the recording device to move from a point on the information-signal recording medium to a next point thereon, (2) the first transfer rate, (3) the second transfer rate, and (4) the third transfer rate.
