1. A recording apparatus for recording information on a recording medium comprising:

  • a detector which detects information stored on the recording medium relating to at least one of recording strategy parameters which include a recording power level, time relations between recording pulses, a lookup table for edge shifting values of at least one of a leading and a trailing edge of at least one recording pulse, and adaptive control sets;

    said adaptive control sets being set by at least one of a first timing adjuster for changing a rising edge timing of a head pulse and fixing a falling edge timing of said head pulse, a second timing adjuster for changing a rising edge timing and a falling edge timing of said head pulse, a third timing adjuster for changing a rising edge timing of a tail pulse and fixing a falling edge timing of said tail pulse, and a fourth timing adjuster for changing a rising edge timing and a falling edge timing of said tail pulse;

    a converter which converts said at least one of said recording strategy parameters detected by said detector to a parameter for at least one of signal processing, a timing pulse, and a current sink;

    a first switch which switches between said first timing adjuster and said second timing adjuster; and

    a second switch which switches between said third timing adjuster and said fourth timing adjuster.
