To cover one last situation so far I encountered, I ran into
"(Artist) Ft. Norah Jones - John Mayer - (Title) Some Song"
So what I want to do is copy everything before the - in the 'Artist' Field to the 'Title' Field to look like this
"(Artist) John Mayer - (Title) Some Song Ft. Norah Jones"

Step 1.......Copy everything before the - in the Artist field some temp tag.
Create a new ASR preset: Search for  (.*?).s*-.*   in  the containing (Artist in this case) tag and replace by  $1  in some temp tag (eg custom9).

Step 2
Copy temp tag to Title tag and tick 'append source tag to the end of destination tag placing between them a space

Step 3
To remove the 'Ft. Norah Jones' in the Artist tag see here
