About / Biography

Your keynote, gala or festival stage only gets one shot. Every guest should hear every word, and sound should be the one thing you never have to think about on the day.

I'm Mark Christiansen. I've been running live sound since 1997, and SwissMixx Audio works across the Treasure Valley and northern Utah from Nampa, Idaho. The person you talk to is the engineer at the console.

What we handle:

  • Conferences and keynotes: wireless and lav mics, confidence monitors, a throwable mic for Q&A
  • Galas, awards nights and fundraisers
  • Festivals, city events and concerts: large-format PA, stage monitors, mixing engineers
  • Drone shows and fireworks: music synced over large areas
  • Races and sporting events
  • DJ and MC for welcome nights and after parties

How it works:

  1. Send your date, venue and run of show.
  2. Get a clear quote listing every piece of gear and every person.
  3. Enjoy an event where the sound just works.

Past work includes the Utah State Capitol, RootsTech, Boeing, Adobe, Salomon and 14+ years at Antelope Island's concert series, plus audio crew for Garth Brooks and Post Malone.

What sets SwissMixx Audio apart from other live audio production companies?

What really sets SwissMixx Audio apart from other live audio production companies is our commitment to delivering the best possible sound experience for every event, no matter the venue. We achieve this by using advanced sound modeling software to build detailed heat maps of each venue before we even arrive on-site. This allows us to visualize exactly how sound will travel throughout the space, identify potential acoustic challenges, and optimize speaker placement for even coverage and maximum clarity.
By leveraging industry-leading acoustic simulation platforms, we can predict and address issues such as dead spots, echoes, and uneven bass response before your event begins. Our team uses these heat maps to design custom audio solutions tailored to your venue’s unique layout and acoustics, ensuring that every guest, no matter where they’re seated, enjoys crystal-clear, immersive sound.
With SwissMixx Audio, you’re getting a precision-engineered audio experience, backed by cutting-edge tech

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

The International music festival at Roots Tech.


What's your favourite type of event?

Singer singer writer festivals.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

Mark's life took an unexpected turn one fateful day in history class. A charming classmate approached him with an invitation to join the theater, but he politely declined, believing it wasn't his cup of tea. Little did he know, this seemingly insignificant moment would set the stage for his future career.

Overhearing the conversation, Mark's history teacher, who also directed the school's drama productions, saw potential where Mark didn't. With a gentle nudge, the teacher encouraged Mark to attend a script read-through, promising it would be worth his time. Reluctantly, Mark agreed, bringing along his best friend for moral support.

As Mark sat through the read-through, he felt increasingly certain that acting wasn't his calling. However, fate had other plans. The drama director, recognizing Mark's hesitation, made an offer he couldn't refuse: a week out of class to learn how to operate the sound board for the upcoming production.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Pink Floyd and Queen showed what live sound can be. Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters are the favorite live act. Greatest song of all time? Bohemian Rhapsody is hard to argue with.

Service Info

Can what you offer be tailored to the event or the audience?

Yes. Send the run of show and the room, and we build the system around it.


What is included in your standard service or package?

Every quote lists the gear and the crew line by line, so you know exactly what you are getting.


How far in advance should customers book you?

Summer weekends and festival season fill first, so ask early. Short notice is still worth a message.
