Whit this I can get very good sound, and all my setup fit in my backpack (regular size, nothing fancy), and weight 3kg (6lb?). That is awesome!!

I prefer to also have HarpAttack and DI box, but usually this set is enough. ---------- Excuse my bad English. My videos.

There isn't a low enough resolution camera in the world to make my rig look pretty!
That said, I'll try to take some pics tomorrow when there is better light. It consists of a Shure Prologue (cheap and second hand) into the amp, which is a Park 30 watt I got at a garage sale, an LPB1 Linear Power Boost (so I can set my vocal and harp levels differently, a DOD a-b box and a Vocal FX multi pedal (I don't use it much). For recording I have a Blue Yeti microphone and a set of Marshall headphones. And lots of harps. When I'm out and about I record myself with my little Canon Powershot. It's not high quality, but it's good enough for recording ideas for melodies and to get a general idea how the show went. And my PC.
I do a lot o playing straight into a PA. This usually the case at the Twisted Tail in Philly. I usually only bring an old Boss octave pedal. I use the pedal like a tone booster. ----------
I play off the mic and use whatever the club has. I want the harp to sound like it sounds acoustically. Walter

I like the convenience of small effects units that I can plug into the PA at any venue. That approach is good for air travel (all my harps and effects can go in the carry-on baggage), and consistency of sound from gig to gig.
I use a Greg Heumann Ultimate 58 into a Korg Pandora PX5D (small multi-effects unit) into a TC Helicon VoiceLive Touch (vocalist's looper/effects unit). They all mount on the mic stand.
Here's the rig and some of the sounds:

The pedal between the Zoom and EP is an effects loop swtich from Saturn Works. It takes the Zoom in and out of the direct signal. In this way, I can rotate between effects on the Zoom without impacting the dry signal.
Inspired by Brendan, I also use the Korg Pandora PX5D. Also a Audix Fireball V, an impedance converter. Add a Boss Loop Station for solo shows ---------- Tony Eyers Australia www.HarmonicaAcademy.com everyone plays...
I quite often play my BlowsMeAway wood mic (with vintage Shure CR element) into the PA via my Harp Break pedal, sometimes with the Harp Delay as well. I like the Break with the volume knob all the way up, and the Drive knob at about 11 o'clock. Add delay to taste.
