The tempo is 12/8. I have a metronome clic every 1/8 note. I would like to have it at only at every 3 1/8 note, (at every 1 pointed quarter note), four time in a measure. Is it possible?

What you just described is not 12/8, it's 4/4 with a triplet eighth note feel. True 12/8 has six quarter-notes per bar. Two eighth notes per beat, not three.
Are you speaking of a 12/8 blues feel? If so, it's not really 12/8, it's 4/4 with eighth-note triplets.
Thank you. I finally choose 4/4 with eighth-note triplets and it sound like what I want.
The tempo is 1 quarter note = 112
If I use 12/8, the tempo is 1 eighth note = 168 (112 X 3/2). When it's time to print the partition, Logic Pro aloud to place 1 dotted quarter note = 120 on the sheet. . I'm asking me why I can't do the same while recording and then have a clic every 3 eighth-note. I've always seen eighth-note in group of three: in 6/8 (Berkley Series Keyboard, volume 2, p.79), or in 9/8 (Debussy, Rêverie).
The solution may be to create a track with Klopfgeist and play 4 dotted quarter note in one measure, like I founded in one discussion. I don't know what is the result when I add the drummer in another track.
Anyway, the result is very good in 4/4 with eight-note triplet.
Thank you.
Sorry: Debussy, Clair de Lune.
Just be aware that true 12/8 is equivalent to six quarter notes and is a different beast than 4/4 with eighth note triplets.
In logic Pro, whit a tempo of 12/8, Is it possible to have the metronome clic only at every 1 pointed quarter note?
