Have you had opportunity to let more experienced players see if they too are considerably flat on your instrument?
Are you more flat in certain parts of the scale that others? Are you flat on other instruments?
Experienced players will often make changes to reed placement to compensate for a reed that's too hard on one side relative to the other, moving the harder side microns towards midline. Additionally, slightly soft reeds can be moved up a micron (or too hard ones down). These extremely small changes don't normally affect pitch, so I'd look elsewhere for the cause of your flatness.
That said, I play flat on synthetic (Legere) reeds. What type of reeds, cane or synthetic have you tried?
