Dear Regex gurus...

I have reached the limit of my regex knowledge, and cannot figure this problem out.

I have titles such as:

```
Song Title (Feat. Guest Artist) (Deejay Mix)
Song Title 2 (Remix version)
Song Title 3 (Feat. Backup Singer)
Song Title 4 (Mega Dub) (Feat. Someone)

```

I'm looking for a regex set that would be able to grab the Featured Artist info (except for the parens) and isolate it in a temporary field so that I could append it to the end of the Track Artist field.

I started with FORMAT VALUE "TEMP1": %TITLE% and FORMAT VALUE "TEMP2": %TITLE%, then Regex TEMP1: ^(.+)((.+))$ -\> $1 and

```
Regex TEMP2: ^(.+)\((.+)\)$ -> $2 (and putting TEMP2 after ARTIST and TEMP1 back into TITLE)

```

but this doesn't check to see if the TEMP2 actually contains "Feat."

The other thing I've been working with is ([Ff]eat[^)]+), but I don't know how to capture this group so that it could go into another field... and it leaves "()" behind since it ignores the opening and closing parentheses.

Any ideas?
