I've tried a few delays but I can't ever make them sound like other people do.
Probably a mix of lack of patience and lack of skill.

Anybody know how you set the internal trimpot for use with active basses? I've noticed a huge difference between how my passive jag bass and active p-bass sound through my megalith, I still gotta open it up and see if it has a trimpot though.....

If it has a trimpot, I'm pretty sure you can just set it by ear to what ever sound you like.
If you switch basses back and forth a lot you could replace the trimpot with a regular pot and control it from the outside.

Have no clue. Think I'll shoot Alan an email and just ask him....

The only reason I ask is that, for me, as well as I'd wager most of the general slow-and-low afficionados, Mountainking popped up on the radar as they were listed in the gear section of the equipment notes for Wino, Al, and Scott Kelly.
Hence the perpetual doom-boner for the Megalith.

Can I use that for a new pedal name?
