First of all, there's a bug where when I set custom transcriber via the API (not possible in the dashboard), the dashboard crashes when trying to view the assistant with custom transcriber. But that's not what I'd like to ask. Are you able to provide a complete list of the assistant settings which have no effect when custom transcriber is used? For example, it's obvious that settings relating to endpointing do not work. But what about background noise suppression? It's currently hard to check, especially when dashboard is crashing. Am I correct that you actually do not do any audio pre-processing when using custom transcriber?

When using a custom transcriber, all built-in audio processing features like background noise suppression, endpointing, and silence detection are disabled, so you must handle all audio preprocessing and turn segmentation yourself.. https://docs.vapi.ai/documentation/assistants/conversation-behavior/background-speech-denoising
