As long as you have \time 4/4, LilyPond will fit in exactly 4/4, i.e. 8
eighth notes in each measure.
Just as the other reply you have received, I don't really understand why
you don't use \time 12/8
directly. However, there are cases where you may want 12/8 in one part

maybe you wrote /time 12/8? I've know I've done that at least once. :}

Is there any reason why you're using a 4/4 time signature, but setting
it to be equal to 12/8?
Why not just use \time 12/8 in the first place?

I'm really starting to wrap my brain around the idea
of using this software over other notation software,
but I am having a problem. Here is a basic template below:
\version "2.10.33"
\header {
}
\include "english.ly"
staffTrombone = \new Staff {
\time 4/4
\set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = #'(12
