Sorry, I'm also a LaTeX novice, so I can't help you much more.

Could you do [8th note] = 184, or [quarter note] = 92, instead?

Another alternative would be to have something like:

en dient gespeeld te worden op tempo
\begin[lilypond]
c16
\removeStaff
\removeTimeSignature
\removeClef
\removeEverthingApartFromNote
\end[lilypond]
= 368.

That's a pretty messy way of doing it, but it might work!  :)
