An error correction circuit for determining an error in rotational speed of a recordable disk of a disk drive includes a sinusoidal error calculation portion adapted to generate a true oscillation error signal, and a summation portion adapted to combine the true oscillation error with a spindle error signal to generate a total error signal. The sinusoidal error calculation portion is adapted to generate a new true oscillation error based on the total error signal.
