I occasionally look at the classical crossover - uk forum (cc-uk) which has a Jackie section or board. Their inauguration thread has been locked since Jan. 25 because political squabbling got out of hand. Apparently their network Jackie NA feeds were mostly bad also. I read that the French one also was not good elsewhere. The original story that overseas feeds were apparently good now seems to be incorrect.
It might be helpful to overseas understanding of the NA mic network feed issue if people from here that are members there also further elaborate on their Jackie talk thread, since their inauguration thread is locked. Most comments are about Jackie being nervous and not doing a good job. Some mention is made that the canberra feed is better along with another one. It has not received the scrutiny there that occurred here. Maybe a suggestion could be made for those interested to review our forum and thread if they can find and observe this Forum.

I looked live at german n-tv and recorded it. The sound was poor and I said to me: It is a stately act and no concert, the quality is not of matter. That she began a little week and failed with the -ly I saw but the rest for me was a bad technic with strong speakers under free sky. At all it was not Jackie`s usual sound. But, really, in an act of hours only few listeners looked to the anthem, Trump`s speek was of matter. No opportiunity to promote an artist. What stays is the fact she was choosen to sing the anthem.

It doesn't work to include this link with the "Facebook" function. It has to do with the browser. See my comment in "Technical Issuses".

Review of recent you tube videos/comments indicates the ABC Jackie NA inauguration network feed version is considered to be the worst by a long shot with low weak volume to start, gross distortion, with pops/snaps and sound dropouts. Most network versions did not add reverb (which helps sound quality). Unfortunately, ABC's is one of the highest if not the actual highest volume one. Jackie is getting killed on comments by haters, gloaters and all knowing music snobs. Many of the nicer(?) people blame nerves, weather, and on and on. 3k likes and 2k dislikes. Although a couple people mentioned there was a bad sound track network feed, it seemed not to matter and had little effect on comments. These bad feed videos need to be deleted along with their comments. Incidentally, the Australian feed supposedly is pretty good.
The same Jordan Nash I quoted earlier from one video apparently has been able to dig up more info on the bad network feeds. He stated that it was a technical foul up. The inaugural system passed the sound to one news network, who was serving as the network pool provider (for all networks). News services are not generally prepared for converting speech quality (mono sound, highly compressed) to stereo and less compression. This changeover did occur during rehearsal but apparently not for the live performance. Why?....He continued that this feed to the networks was a 5.1 (dolby?) feed with a loud center track but the other tracks were relatively dead (no reverb either). This sounds logical to me in explaining the poor tinny weak thin sound. The Australian video clip reconstituted the almost non existent stereo and added reverb.
Of course, this begs the question, "Why was it botched when it counted and why, apparently, was this time the only time this has ever happened with an inauguration NA ?"

I've just heard it the first time and think it's great. Apparently she had to sit there in the freezing cold for a couple of hours then get up and hit her straps. She gives it more as the song goes on. She did what was asked and did it well.

These bad feed videos need to be deleted The scores, maybe hundreds, of new trashy YT videos keying Jackie are quite dismaying. Also many of her old videos are being re-re-pirated and uploaded, often with "Trump" newly in the title. People trying to get a piece of the pie. I'd love to see them all go away, but they won't, unless copyright owners expend a lot of energy.

The official (Jackie's YT channel) one. Too bad the Team can't make all the others go away- but I guess Jackie doesn't really own (technically) the performance.

I heard nothing wrong. Jackie was perfectly brilliant as usual. Loved to see ex-POTUS singing along with her!!

I watched the inauguration live streaming on the internet. It was an ABC feed with George Stefanbigmouth and a couple of unidentified women. When Jackie sang the sound was not good. It sounded like she dropped a couple of syllables and sang softly at the beginning. Later I watched several videos that were not network feeds and she sounded brilliant just as she always does. There was something wrong with the network feed so the world didn't get to hear Jackie at her best. This is unfortunate because she gave a great performance.

Yes... and the ABC one is what comes up at the top of the YT list- even if you search just "Jackie Evancho". (at least for me) One would think it should be her official channel.
And now "Jackie Evanchos Best" is gone. His were at least consistently good quality.

I watched it mainly on CBS including Jackie's part and at the time didn't notice anything amiss; if there was, I was so caught up in the moment I didn't think about the sound. I thought she did start somewhat slowly (or maybe lowly) but recovered by the finale which at the time I thought sounded fine. I had switched a couple of times early on to C-span but they had absolutely NO commentary, leaving huge blocks of silence so I stayed mainly with Charlie Rose, Nora, and Gail, all of whom I like better than any of the other networks' anchors.
