Chunk Systems Agent 00Funk Mark II

December, 2006

Dressed fly in purple with mission-ready components and stylish yellow labels, Agent “Double-O” Funk is licensed to thrill in her majesty’s secret groove service. The Agent is armed with super-sick sounds—up mode is especially scrumptious—but finding your sonic way can be an adventure. You’ll need to work up to the required clearance level before understanding how the four oddly named knobs interact.


Pretending squelch is called “peak” and sweep is labeled “sensitivity” will get you part way. The pots’ performance ranges are wide, so expect ultra-deep lows, crazy highs, and even sharp pops of note-attack signal distortion. Down also has trippy sounds, but it has a noisy hiss, and at several settings notes bottomed out, disappearing entirely while the filter was fully opened. The envelope out jack links the pedal with Chunk’s Brown Dog (see page 44) for mega-weirdness. The 00Funk has amazing analog sounds, but sometimes notes just an octave apart behave completely differently, so plan on searching for that setting sweet-spot.
