Welcome to MusicRadar, the premier online site for music makers. We've been live for over a month now, so a big thank you to everyone who's joined, commented and given us tremendous feedback on what they like so far. We're busy ironing out some of the bugs that exist in this Beta version, but while we do that we will also be kicking on with a daily update of news and reviews to add to the heap of musical goodness already here.

MusicRadar is powered by the world's leading magazines for musicians - Total Guitar, Computer Music, Guitarist, Rhythm, Future Music and Guitar Techniques. With the expertise of those magazines, plus MusicRadar's own dedicated team, we're aiming to make MusicRadar.com the ultimate online destination for anyone who makes music. So please, join in!

So, what will you find here?

Reviews and product spec
We've hundreds up already, with thousands more being added in this Beta stage. We'll provide great photos of kit, plus loads of web links that will help you explore gear even further. And when you join MusicRadar.com, you can add your own reviews too...

News
We'll deliver the latest news on products and artists immediately. Want to know what the latest gear is? Who's making an album? Which artist has posted some music you want to hear? We'll let you know. If you just want product news, you can filter for guitars, tech and drums categories. For all the latest news from the NAMM trade show in California, click here.

Tuition
MusicRadar can help you play better. We're busy uploading an extensive set of tab, audio and video lessons that will help you make better music, no matter what you play. Again, you can filter for guitars, tech and drums categories. Our tutorial list is growing all the time: look out for some exciting exclusives soon...

Samples
If you record on a computer, you always need more sounds. As the site is Beta, there's much more to come from this section. We're rolling out thousands of samples in the coming months, all free to anyone who joins MusicRadar.
