A method of providing a control output by selecting a controller to an actuator is discussed. A first controller having an estimator-compensator architecture is selected if the actuator is in a settle stage. A second controller having an architecture other than that of the first controller is selected when the actuator is in a track follow stage. The control output is provided from the selected controller to the actuator. The control output is indicative of the control signal.
