m 4:5:6:7 cross-set tuning: No media embedding to respect the list format

Cited Narushima's book which apparently attributes the term "cross-set" to Wilson.

In combinatorics, this operation is called a [[wikipedia:Sumset|sumset]].

As reported by [[Nick Vuci]], "the term Cross-Set as applied to scales is apparently the invention of Praveen Venkataramana".
The term ''cross-set'' goes back to [[Erv Wilson]].<ref name="Narushima 2017">Narushima, T. (2017). Microtonality and the tuning systems of Erv Wilson. Routledge.</ref>

The 4:5:6:7 cross-set scale is generated by multiplying every pair of intervals from the 4:5:6:7 tetrad ([[1/1]] - [[5/4]] - [[3/2]] - [[7/4]]), including an interval with itself, and [[Octave reduction|octave-reducing]] as necessary. It contains 10 distinct pitches out of 16 combinations.
