you need to follow these two steps in order to install pyaudio:-
pip install pipwin
pipwin install pyaudio
I hope this resolves your problem.

As the error message says, please install the build tools:
Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required. Get it with "Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools": http://landinghub.visualstudio.com/visual-cpp-build-tools

I made a program that solves this for you. I will put the code in here. It uses the os.system function to do the CMD stuff for you, just an easier way to download it.
import os
os.system('cmd /k "pip install pipwin"')
os.system('cmd /k "pipwin install PyAudio"')
Then run that and it will do it all for you, if it doesn't work on the first try, just run it again. Sometimes it has to restart CMD for pipwin to start working

what should i do ?

UPDATED ANSWER
It's PyGObject that is failing
try
sudo yum install gcc gobject-introspection-devel cairo-devel pkg-config python3-devel gtk3 cairo-gobject-devel
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib64/pkgconfig
before attempting the pip install
This actually worked for me on Centos7

and i dont know ho to fix this problem

First, try to run this as admin on your CMD:
pip install pipwin
pipwin install pyaudio
Second, if the problem doesn't resolve, try to install the setuptools:
pip install --upgrade setuptools
Third, you may have to install Visual C++

brew install portaudio
Then:
brew link portaudio
pip install pyAudio
Or if you are using windows:
Go to: https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyaudio
Download the file and then go to its directory in the cmd and type:
For win 32 bit:
pip install PyAudio‑0.2.11‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl
For win 64 bit:
pip install PyAudio‑0.2.11‑cp38‑cp38‑win_amd64.whl

For windows-
https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyaudio
press ctrl + f and search pyaudio and scroll down
Download any version of this if you are using 64 bit-
PyAudio‑0.2.11‑cp39‑cp39‑win_amd64.whl
or download any version of this if you are using 32 bit -
PyAudio‑0.2.11‑cp39‑cp39‑win32.whl
go to the file location of the downloaded file and press Shift + Right click
select open command window here
then copy the file name and paste like pip install "file name" for e.g-
pip install PyAudio‑0.2.11‑cp39‑cp39‑win_amd64.whl

If you are working on Ubunutu/Linux try below.
It worked for me
sudo apt-get install portaudio19-dev
pip install pyaudio

You have to download the pyAudio file manually and put it in a directory and cd to the same directory and run the given command.

I had the same issue and fixed it using pipwin:
pip install pipwin
pipwin install pyaudio

I keep getting this while trying to install PyGObject for Python 3.7 in Pycharm. I at first got the error where cl.exe couldn't be found, but I did some research and would that apparently C++ toolkit was missing even though I could locate cl.exe. I reinstalled pip, toolkit, and added cl.exe to PATH, and this new error came up:

I was getting same error while installing pywhatkit. I used pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel --user first then installed pywhatkit using command pip install pywhatkit and it worked.

delete windows temp files and add this argument to the end of the install command --no-cache-dir
if it didn't work try to install tokenize module first
