Except for your requirement of setting quiet-times, one possible option would be Google Notifier. Perhaps you could have a cron process that starts and stops Google Notifier at specific times?
The Notification settings aren't laid out very well. To fully disable notifications, you need to change pretty much all the settings on an app's notifications page in Settings. Make sure you have turned off every switch circled here, and change Alert Style to None:

The phone ringing is, technically speaking, a notification sound, and uses the same volume setting as all other notifications (called Ringer Volume).
As far as notification tone length, you would need to contact the app's developer. You cannot set custom tones (at least, outside the app) for 3rd-party iOS apps like you can with Phone, Messages, etc.
