Variable area is type of [[optical soundtrack]]. It should be differentiated from a [[variable density]] track, though the same equipment can be used for reading and playback of either type of track. Variable area tracks may consist of a single, double, or multiple tracks, and the tracks can be unilateral or bilateral. | Variable area is type of [[optical soundtrack]].
