Granted. This high five, and all others that will come after, will never have that satisfying {clap} sound or feeling, but your friends, family members, and co-workers will get it every time.

Alternative

Every one of your high five afterwards will be the clap sound effect from most modern pop hits.

It would make more sense to say that the high-five from a magic chimp would be so good that even the best high five after would not even be in the same category, thus would not even be worth doing. Which most of the time would not matter, but some people might think you're being a jerk.

I have no idea on that but if it's a really punch-y sound (like in the Friends theme song) I can't see that being bad. Sorry, only thing I can thing of.

I could see a sound effect being funny maybe but probably just annoying or maybe just boring if it matters at all.
