Highly Recommended !
Predator 2 Explained is one of the best tutorials I've followed on Groove 3. There is very good subject knowledge mixed with a relaxed and friendly tone. The pace of the tutorial delivery is easy to follow and there are some great sound design tips that can be transferred to other synthesisers.

Deep introduction to Predator 2
This tutorial went into a lot of depth and got me really excited about delving into this synth. The only negative comment is that I would have liked more coverage of the effects.
