Btw I forgot to add that I'm currently doing a lot of stuff synced to audio and I'm finding the results are better if I posterise time down to 10-15 Fps. There's so much variation in audio that using key frames or waveforms at full frame rate can become very flickery. As mentioned earlier, the mosaic effect may be all you need but it will Flickr at 30fps, so try using posterise time with various frame rates.

They're fun to play with and worth remembering.

for a quantizing vu meter effect, try the mosaic effect with "sharp colors" turned on. and then put that on your favorite "audio amplitude to scaling shape" animation method. If that is not clear....Just try the mosaic effect with "sharp colors" on top of any moving footage, and you will understand.

more specifically, create a small rectangular shape layer. add a repeater with its transform set to 0,-100 so that it goes up. set the copies to 6 (though the expression will take care of this for you it helps to see how it looks.
then if you want it driven by audio, convert that tracks audio to keyframes using teh keyframe assistant and then add this expression to the repeater
a=thisComp.layer("Audio Amplitude").effect("Both Channels")("Slider") Math.floor(linear(a,1,20,1,6))
