A method and apparatus for controlling acoustic noise generated by a seek operation in a disc drive by using a feedback control system to control the seek operation. The feedback control system is excited by a feed-forward signal during execution of the seek operation. An acoustic factor, which defines a seek operation noise level, is selected. The feed-forward signal is generated based, at least in part, upon the selected acoustic factor. The feed-forward signal has a first derivative having a maximum value. The selected acoustic factor is used to select the maximum value of the first derivative of the feed-forward signal.
