Listening to a YouTube track while following an iRp chart that's an accurate transcription is helpful.
Finding a chart that actually matches a random youtube is a challenge.

Try this:

Search the forums for “source track” to find some excellent transcriptions of specific YouTube’s.

Whole Tone Practice.

In case you don't know, there's only two whole tone scales, since you are either starting on C or C#.

Whole Tone Scale - Augmented - Brian Streckfus

A few more teaching songs I made.

Three songs with slower moving chord changes.

Digging into Chords 1 - Brian Streckfus

Digging into Chords 2 - Brian Streckfus

Digging into Chords 3 - Brian Streckfus


Then a couple of more difficult songs that work on the diminished scales (Whole Half Scale) and chords. The whole half scale in these two songs is:
C C# D# E F# G A A# C
Which to my ears, works throughout the whole song.

It was a fun experience because it lead to bizarre chords progressions rather quickly.

Whole Half - Diminished - Unknown Composer

Whole Half - Diminished 2 - Unknown Composer

Be sure to turn off the drums. Looping sections is recommended.Use modulation and feel free to change the chords. Do a variety of tempos.
