   what are those bars that display on boards for music that stack boxes on top of each other for higher rectangles called? like in response to volume or something?

     @pixouls VU meters? I think some people would think strictly of the needles that swing right in response to volume, but I think it's accurate to refer to stacks of LEDs (often going from green to yellow to red) as VU meters as well.
     
     Is that what you're thinking of?

     en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VU_meter… seems to be saying the more generic term without implying standardized frequency response or voltages is "level meter".
