I would like to remove everything in parentheses in my filenames and tags, mainly to get rid of featured artists on a track. I would also like to get everything after and including "feat." in my titles to be removed as well. I tried to use the replace function with the parentheses like (\*?) and remove them that way, but I could not get it to work. Thanks!
