Multiple objects containing TClonesArray

Hello,

I have as a data memeber of an object a TClonesArray. I'm using this object to contain generic device hits and then saving them in a tree. I would like to have many instances (many branches of the same class) of this object in my tree. My object works well with one instance, but I'm finding that I need to add an additional static TClonesArray pointer to the class for each additional instance of that class. So if I have 2 instances of the object, I need 2 static TClonesArray pointer in the class defination. This works, but ultimately I want to have ten's of instances. I've tried to use an array of static TClonesArray pointer, but that failed. Are there any tricks that I can use to get by this limitation?  Thanks.
