A voice coil type linear motor controls the movement and positioning of a transducer which cooperates with a spinning disk. The motor is feedback controlled for separate speed (seek) and positioning modes in which respectively the transducer is moved across the disk towards a different track and is held centered above that track. In order to offset the effect of a tilted axis of carriage movement, the control condition in the positioning mode representing a correct transducer position in which it is held by the motor, is continuously sampled and held during a period when the transducer is moved to another track to be applied as correction for the control moving the transducer towards another track. This correction signal is also used in the initial phases of holding the transducer above the newly selected track, until sampling and positioning control proper takes over.
