i can't install PyAudio in my python 3.8 What should I do?

Question

I tried a lot of things to install PyAudio on my PC for example:
pip istall PyAudio but it says:

error: command 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\2019\\BuildTools\\VC\\Tools\\MSVC\\14.26.28801\\bin\\HostX86\\x86\\cl.exe' failed with exit status 2

I also tried pipwin install PyAudio and pip install PyAudio-0.2.11-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl but it says PyAudio-0.2.11-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

What should I do?
