Signal recording system using sound memory

An information signal recording apparatus comprising:

• (a) information signal generating means having a read only memory storing data for generating a plural kinds of information signals, for reading from the read only memory data to generate an information signal selected from said plural kinds of information signals and generating the information signal according to the data read out;
• (b) recording means for recording with other information signal the information signal generated from said information signal generating means while causing a recording position to move for recording a signal on said recording medium, interrupting the recording operation when the recording operation of the information is intermittently operated, and restarting the recording operation upon reversing a recording position on the recording medium by a certain quantity;
• and
• (c) data reading control means for successively assigning a read address for reading said data relative to said memory during a period when the reading operation of the information signal is being operated by said recording means, said data reading control means being arranged, when the recording operation of said information signal by said recording means is interrupted, to temporarily hold the read address which has been assigned immediately before the interruption and to interrupt the reading operation of the data relative to said read only memory, and, when the recording operation of the information signal by said information signal recording means is restarted, to successively assign the read address of the data relative to said read only memory from the read address preceded said temporarily held read address by a certain quantity of read address and to restart the reading operation of data relative to said read only memory.
