Good question, it's about time I looked up some Spanish musical terms! smile

Well, by looking on Wikipedia I guess that 4/4 time would be "compás de cuatro por cuatro," or "cuatro cuatros." It is a type of time known as "compás cuaternario," although this term is obselete.

And 'a beat'.... do you think one could use 'una negra' to mean the beat itself rather than the crotchet note??? Just a thought... rolleyes
