Hi,
What I would do is to select the image and use "Show in Finder", change defaults so to make Capture One default application for that type of image. From C1 export to a specific folder and make that one watched folder. You can drag the images from the watched folder to your normal folder in LR.
This should work, I have never tried it because I prefer Lightroom to C1. I use the show in finder solution often with C1, and it works if C1 is running.
For me, C1 is a dead end, mostly because I use features in LR extensively that C1 lacks. But, C1 has better demosaicing with less colour artefacts, so a mixed route may have it's advantages.
Using TIFFs instead of raws wastes a lot of disk space.
Best regards
Erik
I've used Lightroom for many years now. Very comfortable with it. I'm quite happy with the way it works as a catalog for RAW files (in my workflow). I use Bridge to manage converted files (Tiffs, PSD's etc). However, I'm changing the way I light and shoot so want to start using Capture One to convert certain images. It helps that there is a sale on Capture one right now.
Do folks here have experience working with Lightroom to manage catalog structures for RAW files and Capture one to convert?
What concerns should I have with this workflow?
Really, I'm just going to use C1 as an alternate program to convert files that have already been cataloged in LR so I don't foresee any major problems, but would love to hear from others who do this.

Thanks!
