The first conga slap sounds hyper realistic and it's also tunable. I'd say work on the tumbao sound more and this may be the go to conga app for many musicians looking to build real backing tracks! Good job so far! ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2014-08-02* Quite laggy and sounds like it's not tuned at all, plus every 10-15 taps you do, an advert comes up and directs you to the App Store. ### 5/5 — Yes! *2013-11-27* Variety of drum setups, sounds great, definitely worth the download ### 5/5 — Amazing sound *2013-11-08* This is a great way to learn congas... They guide you to play along!!! It is very easy to learn, educative and entertaining and let me tell you I have my headphones and the sound is spectacular!!! So real and many options to play I can even download a song and play it at the same time. I just started so it may take me a little before I can play a whole song but this is an encouraging app.if you are a professional magic can be done w this app. If you want to distract your child and encourage him to learn music is perfect as well. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2013-11-08* Big ups to the creator of this app. So easy to use and love the functionality. ### 5/5 — By Far The Best Drumming App! *2013-11-07* This app has it all......great graphics, phenomenal sound, and amazing features. I especially like the Learn 'N Play loops, that teaches you how to play both beginner and advanced rhythms on the congas and other drums. It's obvious a lot of time, thought and experience went into creating this app......by far the best percussion app out there! ## Frequently asked questions about Congas! ### Does Congas! have ads?
