As far as I know, tremolos are not indicated in number of notes per quarter
note. If you want to produce a result like in that clip of the Saint-Saens
piece, you could tie to eighth notes and put a two-stroke tremolo on the
one that is tied. I just tried that in 100 quarter notes per minute, and I
got a tremolo lasting 4 quick notes. Try different things and play it back
until you hear the result you like.
Cheers

As you'll hear, this example is notated with a 4-note tremolo, rather than a
3-note tremolo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8s9-NFyp9lo

Hello Annabelle,
The best thing to do is try out the different tremoli and hear the result in
playback; by my experience, the result is authentic.
I am not sure what you mean by "three note tremolos". If to take it
literally, that would mean a tremolo between three notes, in which case you
have to use the "tremolo with next note" function. You activate that by
pressing enter on your numpad while your cursor is on the first note of the
tromolo. This would give a tremolo between two notes. I haven't tried doing
it between three notes, but I imagine, just imagine, you would do another
"tremolo with next note" on the last note of your initial two-note tremolo.
Don't forget also that after each of these "tremolo with next note" moves,
you have to choose the speed of your tremolo,measured in strokes, which you
would write with your numpad numbers from 1 to 5.
Cheers
Vytautas

Most Spanish guitar players that I've heard would do a three-note tremolo,
but I'm not sure how that would work in the "Tremolos" layout.

Hi there,
A buzz roll is for drum notation. The tremolo amount depends on how much you
want the note to be tremoloed.
Maybe do a search and see what is most common?
Warmly,
Vaughn

Hi, it's Annabelle.
I'm attempting to notate a piece for Spanish guitar, and I've heard
that they utilize tremolos. In the "Tremolos and Beams" layout of
keys, as far as I can tell, there are shortcuts for 3 Tremolos, 4
tremolos, 5 tremolos, and a buzz roll. Which one is best for Spanish
guitar?
