My neighbor is complaining about my rooster :/

Check your town regulations. If roosters aren't illegal, then your neighbor can just go shove... some earplugs in her ears If you are in the country, she has no grounds to complain.

We can have roosters if no one complains. Animal control sent me a letter informing me of the complaint. I called them and talked to them. The lady wasn't clear on what they will do next. The letter said I would be fined $100 if someone complained again, and more and more each additional complaint. But my neighbor blows a whistle, getting my rooster to crow so it seems unfair she can cause it, then complain about it!

Hello, What is a sound maker? I had two roosters but just have one now. I'm kind of afraid of her... She is a small elderly lady, but she can scream like a banshie, so talking to her is a huge challenge (I have social anxiety already).

A sound maker is a device that makes noise such as rain, babbling brook, nighttime crickets, white noise, etc. Here is one on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Portable-Rel...1&keywords=Sound+Makers&qid=1632336511&sr=8-3
There are many different types on the market.
Your neighbor sounds intimidating. I am sorry for all of your trouble. I really hope things smooth out with her.

I too am allowed roosters, but do not keep them, in deference to our neighbors, who are also good egg customers. We do our breeding and keep our roosters at a brothers place, who has no neighbors, anywhere. Our lots here are each a few acres, but the sound travels 1/4 to 1/2 mile with no problems. I am grateful to have good neighbors and so I defer. Also glad I have an option you may or may not have.
