You could replace the Word "Feat." with "(Feat."  
The bigger problem is to detect the end of your featured Artist.  
Is this always at the end of your ARTIST field?

Or do you also have ARTIST content like  
Mike feat. Joe and other Jim feat. Jake?

As the OP just gave

the answer ist:  
Create an action of the type "Format value" or use Convert\>Tag-Tag for ARTIST  
Formatstring: `%artist%)`

And there are so many threads that deal with any kind of featured artist, i would strongly suggest the search function in the forum.  
The search words "feat parenthesis" yield among many others this thread:

> Hi everyone, I had a RegExp before, but my PC had to be formatted. Here's what I could like to do, in the Title field : FROM Let's Go feat Mela Machinko TO Let's Go (Feat. Mela Machinko) The action should replace feat/feat./featuring/ft with Feat. and set the whole thing into parentheses. Thanks !

This works: Formatstring: `%artist%)`, but it only puts a parenthesis at the end of feat. artist. I would like a parenthesis at the beginning of Feat.
