I have posted this before.
--------------------------------------
Barrel;
Lower register flat and left hand upper notes sharp?
Barrel bore too large.
Sharp in the upper part of the second register and the lower altissimo notes?
Barrel bore too large.
Altissimo notes flat?
Barrel bore needs to be cylindrical or mouthpiece bore too large.
Altissimo sharp and the throat tones flat?
Barrel bore needs to be conical, (smaller toward the bell).
Flat in the upper part of the second register and the lower altissimo notes?
Barrel bore too small.
Twelfths near the mouthpiece too wide?
Barrel bore needs to be conical, (smaller toward the bell).
Altissimo is sharp and the twelfths near the mouthpiece are too large?
A conical barrel will help.

It looks like the first statement is what is going on with your barrel. Talking to a good barrel maker like Brad Behn for instance, could help you.
