Good point, Chuck. Many of us managed to get here on the barest of information. However, we tend to forget just how steep that initial learning curve was. Do you remember what it was like to not have a clue, to not even know what questions to ask much less be prepared to act on the answers? I don't, either. I get a little reminder every time I plunge into something completely new, but that just doesn't happen too often anymore.
There have been many pleas for beginner tutorials. It's by far the most-requested aid, I think. The problem is that those kinds of tutorials are actually quite difficult to make. When I was a classroom instructor, I had the luxury of asking my students how I was doing, and encouraging them to stop me if they heard anything that didn't make sense. Learning via videos is very different. The instructor has no idea if his concepts are crossing the divide, and the student has no way to ask for clarification.
When I watch a groove3 video I am often frustrated that they're too basic and too slow-moving, although they are well-organized and factual. But even they don't how to make a proper beginner tutorial. That requires stripping away all presumptions about what the viewer already knows, and starting at bare metal. That, in turn, means that many viewers will be put off because it's too basic and too slow-moving. The video would be hundreds of hours in duration and expensive to produce. And the gurus at Cakewalk are probably the last people you'd want to write that script!
What's the solution? Beginners are best at explaining things to other beginners. They don't have the full story, and they may be handicapped by misinformation. But standing at the foot of the precipice looking up, they have a clearer understanding of the magnitude of the challenge than the mountaineer standing at the top does. Beginners, start making your own videos! Folks here will gladly review them for factual accuracy so you don't embarrass yourself when you post it on YouTube.
