-Simple Time is 2/4, 3/4 and 4/4. The top number indicates how many beats to a measure and the bottom number, 4, indicates that a quarter note gets one beat. A quarter note is the "unit of measurement."
-Time signature or called beats is the counting patterns used in music.
2/4. down and up.
3/4. down, right, up (like triangle)
4/4. down, left, right, up
2/4 start in right, 3/4 and 4/4 start on the top.
-In conducting a composition with complete measures the first beat is always the down beat.
