The part of the recording that is interesting me is when the frequency is stable. Does somebody ever used a fonction that extract only constant data among a huge list of data (sample= 180000)? 


I do not quite understand: If the data is constant, why do you want to 
extract it in that case?
Anyway, if data is really constant, then try the rle() function which 
tells you about the run lengths of constant parts (and you can get end 
values by cumsum of the rle output):

x <- c(1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,1,1)
rle(x)
cumsum(rle(x)$lengths)  # end values
