Weren't there 2 versions of the theme tune? One in mono and one in stereo, the latter having more life in it.
This video seems to give the full details of the various title sequences over the years:

I can't help noticing how much the instrumental version sounds the Going Live theme, or maybe an underscore bed version of it. Strange, as Chucklevision was first shown as part of "Saturday Starts Here", that weird bit of CBBC continuity that wasn't done by Presentation, but by the Going Live team from around TV Centre.
Going Live, Saturday Starts Here and Double Dare all had presumably intentionally similar sounding themes by Peter Gosling. Looking at that vid the Chucklevision theme was by Dave Cooke, so presumably that sort of sound was in vogue at the time!
(Massively off topic but for series 5 of Going Live, both the GL and Double Dare themes were rearranged. The new GL arrangement was so terrible it was changed back to the 1987 original from week 2 onwards, but the DD one was presumably already committed to all the pre-records so it remained until the show ended at the end of that run).
