We have a new apple 8Qd with FCP 6.0.4, using a kona 3 and working with HDV footage at ProRes 422 all SDI. During color correction I noticed that the scope on fcp doesn't match the digital scope in our machine room. FCP says the video is broadcast safe, but the digital scope says that it is still too hot. Has someone else had this issue?

The scopes in FCP are accurate to approx. 2% from what we've seen here. Is this a drastic difference or a slight difference? Slight difference is normal, drastic difference is not.
Also, what are you feeding to the scopes? SDI, Component or Composite?
