A method and apparatus for reducing seek acoustics in a disk drive using feedback during large current transitions is provided. A desired transition profile, which uses feedback, is followed in order to smoothen transitions of a commanded current profile that is supplied to a VCM for moving a head relative to a disk surface during a seek operation. Linear interpolation is used to provide feedback for following the desired transition profile.
