Extreme Color Shift from camera to Capture One (Latest Version)

Hey all, hope you are having a wonderful day/night.

Recently I've noticed whilst tethered, that my images look quite underexposed as opposed to on-camera, I've also noticed a huge shift in the orange tones, moving all the way to deep red. I was using a projector attachment for a light that was clearly orange in real life, and in camera; yet, capture one decided to render it out as a saturated dark red. I changed the settings and took me 5 sec to "fix" the shift, but as a professional these kind of time consuming things is what we tend to avoid the most.

I've been using Lightroom for many years now, and only this year started using capture one for some of my studio or product focused work, so I admit I really lack a grounded knowledge of how capture one behaves in all scenarios.

Attached you will find 3 images: Unedited C1, Unedited Lightroom (Which better resembles what is seen on camera), and Edited C1 (5 sec edit).

I know capture one has different rendering and all, but this amount of shift seems absurd. Is this behavior normal, or am I doing something wrong?

More Info:

Camera: R6 MKII

Lens: RF 24-70 f/2.8 L IS USM

Tethering Cable: TetherPro Optima 10G

All lights had ratings of CRI 95+ or above

ICC Profile: Pro Standard (I also tried changing that to Generic, but is was basically the same)

I have edited already 300+ images on capture one for professional projects, but it seems its weakness is rendering warm oranges accurately, instead of turning them red.
