Is there an order to the video tutorials to help a beginner get started?

I've clicked around in the tutorials, and no matter where I try to start (I'd prefer the beginning) all the tutorials seem to include things I don't know yet. I'm not exactly a novice to music production, but I'm a total beginner at digital audio. I'd like to know if there's a tutorial for a beginner; a Tutorial 1, and then maybe a 2 and a 3.
Thanks,

You don't mention what version of SONAR you have, or plan to acquire, so you may not need the second of these two training video series from Groove3. I have both. SONAR Explained is exactly that. The series was created with SONAR Artist (pre patch points). Here's the list of videos and topics covered.
 

 
The series is well-done. I think you would find it informative and a nice jump-start.

If you have/will have SONAR Platinum, they have a second video series that's an adder to the Explained series.

Good luck! And good music-making!

Thank you. I have Sonar X3 without another version name. I wasn't seeing tutorials in order like this before, so this will be very helpful.

Thanks for the replies. Zargg71, the tutorials at SONAR-University are the ones that I've looked at and had trouble understanding because they aren't arranged in any order. They are, at least, free to SONAR users. TheMaartian, the list of videos you kindly shared here starts at the beginning like I was hoping for, but it looks to me like I have to purchase access to them. I might do that, I suppose, but I will check YouTube once more through the link provided by bluzdog, just in case that collection of tutorials is arranged in an order.
I just like having the ability to start at the beginning.
Genuinely, thank you all for the help.
Bob

This could also be useful, even though it is for X1, the basics are the same.
