Remove everything after the closing parenthesis

Support
1

Hi, guys! I need to remove everything after the right parethesis in the title.
Source: Song Name (Remix) some text
Expected result: Song Name (Remix)

Try an action of the type "Format value" or Convert > Tag-Tag for TITLE
Format string: $regexp(%title%,'(.*\)).*',$1)

Please note that

also applies to e.g.
(Bigger & Better) Lies - Thompson Twins
(Don't Go Back to) Rockville - R.E.M.
(Flying on The) Wings of Love - Level 42
(It's not War) Just the End of Love - Manic Street Preachers

Thanks, it did exactly what i needed.

I am looking to do the same, but instead of (parentheses) I have [brackets]. How would I edit this expression to do the same?

Also, if I have multiple brackets in a title, how do I remove everything after a certain bracket?

Thanks in advance.

Could you give real examples, please?
And tell us, what you have tried so far?

Here are some title samples:

Love Me [Mixshow Edit] [Clean] 90 8A
All Night Long [Album Edit] 99 10A
Somebody's Watching Me [2023 Spooky Bootleg] Clean Cut
I Love It [Flip] [Custom Edit] [Acap In] Clean

Hope this helps; let me know if you need any others.

I tried using replace with a wildcard, but as I am a notice with expressions I wasn't able to make the desired changes.

Try
$regexp(%title%,'(.*\]).*',$1)

That worked; thank you!

$regexp(%title%,'(.*\]).*',$1)

i'm curious but can you break this code down and explain what each section is and is doing?

See the documentation:

and all in all it takes any number or any character until a square bracket appears and stores it in $1 and then it addresses everything following the square bracket. And then it returns the value stored in $1.
