There are a lot of moving pieces at play here. But there are a couple of simple ones you can try

If you bury your beater you will get more thud than the boom if you let it bounce off quickly

You will get more tone by hitting an inch or two above or below dead center. Dead center will get you thud

You will get more tone and less thud with a front head that does NOT have a hole.
 
I've had bearing edge work done from precision drums as well as OCDP. The edging was done on a mapex kit as well as my signia kit. OCDP/mapex..precision/signia. OCDP trued and rounded my mapex shells. Precision double 45'd my signia. I didn't like either results. (For now) I'm siding with the guy on YouTube that claims little to no difference concerning edges with demonstrations.
